> The payments feature works through Bluelink, Hyundai’s branded connected car system that gives users control over various vehicle functions and services. Bluelink, which requires a subscription, is offered in three different packages that cover areas such as vehicle maintenance and alerts, remote climate control and unlocking and locking as well as destination search.

A new source of revenue for Hyundai, and a way for them to extort businesses with the threat of excluding them from their network, thereby diverting customers away.
