An app to pay street performers

Weekend

Available for over a year

The days of throwing spare change into a hat could soon be over with the launch of a new app to pay buskers. BuSK, which was released this week, lets audiences link up their credit or debit cards to send remote donations to street performers. It also provides information about the artists and how to discover more about them. Busking opera singer Chelsea Hart joined Weekend's Paul Henley in the studio.
