Icon cannot be removed

[jlhuertas]

Currently, the extra EXTRA_USE_CARDIO_LOGO allows to switch between the Paypal and card.io logos, but there is no way to completely remove the logos.

Our client (a bank) thinks that other logos would "confuse" their clients regarding the usage of such sensitive data as credit card details. The kind of questions they are trying to avoid is:

• "Paypal? Am I going to do my payments via Paypal? Why do I need to enter this data again? I already have my credit cards in Paypal..."
• "card.io? what's this? to whom am I sending my credit card numbers?"

Of course, credit should be given where credit is due, but maybe in other ways ("About..." screen, etc.) than placing the logos on the capture screen.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll discuss internally and follow up here.

@jlhuertas what about some small text at the bottom of the screen? Something like "Card scanning technology by card.io"? Since we're not charging for this service, we're a little reluctant to simply give up any trace. (After all, how many actually look at the "About..." screen?)

[jlhuertas]

@tomwhipple I completely understand that you are a bit reluctant to give up any trace and I also think that wouldn't be fair. For me, that text would work, let me ask our client and I'll get back to you.

Thanks!

To be clear: I can't promise that we'll take that option, but may consider it as an alternative.

@tomwhipple I think that option of "card scanning tech by" is much more clear than the current logo offering. I'd love to see that happen.

4.0.0 has been released, and includes the extra EXTRA_HIDE_CARDIO_LOGO, which can be used to remove the logo completely.
