What Are the Two Ways of Using Thoken to Make Micropayments?

There are two alternative ways, each has its own merits. It is recommended you choose the way you preferred with respect to different circumstances.

1. Option One: Click a Thoken Tag on Your Browser Bar or in Your Browser’s Bookmark Folder.

   You use Thoken by simply clicking a Thoken bookmarklet either (1) on your browser bar or (2) in your bookmark folder or (3) press a keyboard shortcut.

   This is the preferred way since it often needs one-click only to make payments.

   However, you need to set up your Thoken bookmarklet icon either on your browser bar or in your browser’s bookmark folder.

2. Option Two: Click a Thoken Button on the Web Page of a Provider’s Website.

   In this way, unlike the first option, you don't need to set up Thoken on your browser.

   However, when you click provider’s Thoken to make payments, Token.io does not know who you are. So on the spot, you need to provide additional information to identify yourself, be it a full phone number with country code or a personal email that is already registered with thoken.io.
