Maybe Paywave could have a similar scheme - although surely the banks have to refund the customers whatever, so it's a choice that's internal to the banking system.

The studio gym I go to spent their first year having the wait 30 days for payment: it was apparently standard practice for their processing company when dealing with new companies in the leisure sector.  

I also presume that part of the Ts and Cs for merchants is using the equipment as issued: collecting payments in a scenario which can only be executed by high-powered antennae with in-line amplifiers clearly breaches that.
