The Chase Pay Village features a curated shopping experience and holiday market. DeMerell says this offers merchants an opportunity to showcase their products in an iconic space. The experience is all about getting the consumer more comfortable with the mobile payment experience, says DeMerell.
The Chase Pay Village offers consumers the opportunity to find deals, and also enjoy the holidays, says DeMerell. Chase Pay Village at Westfield World Trade Center's Oculus launched on Black Friday, and is open until January 7th.
American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days. Many companies delayed or canceled orders after President Donald Trump last month put a 145% tariff on items made in China. Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months.
