OCR vs Manual Card Entry

From what I’ve seen, the benefit really depends on context. We tested card scanning in one of our apps using https://ocrstudio.ai/bank-card-scanner/ , mostly to reduce friction on mobile. For users on newer phones, it clearly sped things up and reduced typos, which was the main win for us. It’s not magic — people still need to confirm details — but even that quick review feels easier than typing 16 digits. On desktop it mattered less, but on mobile the difference was noticeable.
