The Pull Payment Protocol is aimed to reinvent everyday payment by using a new innovative architecture of smart contract called "PullContract". Pull contracts use cases:

Fixed Amount Recurring Payments
A user can scan a QR code with their wallet to subscribe to an online Magazine, after scanning the QR code a YAML file will be displayed on the wallet explaining the terms of the PullContract. Once accepted the user is subscribed and the magazine is now able to make PullRequests from the users account every month.
Pay Per Use
Start and stop a service, like online consultancy, once the service is completed the correct amount of PumaPay Tokens are transfered to the service provider. Or the Service can end when the user runs out of Tokens.
Fixed Time Recurring Payment
For Electric or Gas variable monthly payments.
One Time / Single
To pay a restaurant bill.
Shared Payment
To split revenues for things like affiliate marketing and automate payment to the supplier and affiliate.
Restricted Payment
To limit payments based on certain parameters (no more shoes), or authorise / decline transactions by a third party (a worried husband)
Money Back Guarantee
If a frequent customer was granted a money back guarantee and they fulfil pre set criteria, tokens can be released from the contract and returned to the customer's wallet.
