4. 3 major reasons why mobile payment is not working
j y p y g
1. Who owns the customer? Is it the Bank or the Telco?
• The potentially lucrative business of mobile payments is waiting for
banks and telecom operators to agree on each one's role and possible
revenue flow in the future. Technology for paying with mobile phones by
just flashing them near reading equipment in stores or in public transport
is ready, and consumers have appreciated the ease of its use in trials
y, pp
around the world. .
• The never ending struggle to determine who owns the consumers
g gg
wallet will go on till one party ends being a service provider (a utility
provider per se) and another party being the custodian of the
consumers wallet in which the natural choice is the bank.

2. Is there a ubiquitous payment solution for existing as well
as future handsets? The ideal situation for all financial
institutions is to have a mobile banking / payment services that
can cover all handsets, includes roaming and at the lowest
possible cost. S
ibl t Several attempts h
l tt t have b
been made t t and
d to try d
provide such a solution;
• WAP or 3G mobile payment services which unfortunately are handset
dependent. Data charges are also very expensive.
• J2ME applications that can be uploaded into the handset. Unfortunately
this brings the issue of software maintenance and updates. What about
future handsets?
• A SIM card with digital identity for secure payment services. An
services
innovative idea however consumers might be reluctant to change their
SIM as it entails transferring across vital contact and data.

3 Is current SMS banking secured? The current answer is NO!
• Telco’s can view both MO and MT. Current solution offering does not
p
provide end to end security for all SMS. It is also not to the telco’s benefit
y
to invest significantly into end to end security for SMS as there is no
business model to justify this investment.
