China really does take that to another level - when you order a meal in a restaurant and get the bill it has a WeChat or AliPay QR code on it. Scan the code and you've got a pre-populated payment for your meal that can be processed without sitting around trying to get the waiter to bring a card machine to you.
At least in the UK that exists to some degree post-covid, but its in the form of every pub chain in the country having its own crappy mobile app for ordering via a phone.
