e-wallets
Phone payment apps
E-wallets are digital accounts that store payment information for online and in-person transactions.
They hold funds, credit card details, or cryptocurrency, allowing users to pay without physical cards or cash: I loaded my e-wallet for the concert tickets.
Major examples include PayPal, Apple Pay, and Venmo.
Also spelled ewallet or e-wallet; the singular is e-wallet.
