GFG GROUP | PAYMENT SOLUTIONS YOU CAN BANK ON

 


Welcome to our online monthly update
for GFG customers and partners

In this issue the focus is very much on Mobile Payments. We report on our latest sale to Vodafone New Zealand, where mobile top up is being introduced as the first of a range of new mobile payment services.  Peter Goldfinch homes in on the key issues around mobile payments in his latest Goldfinch Report. As usual, Peter’s sometimes controversial reports carry the disclaimer that they represent his personal opinion rather than the views necessarily of GFG Group.  We hope you'll find this update worthwhile. Please do send me your comments and feedback here and please do subscribe others as appropriate.

Best regards,

Mobile Payments – The time is NOW

So now you can pay for stuff using your mobile phone. But who will want to? How will this affect current payment means such as credit and debit cards? Where do the banks stand on mobile payments? What drives the emerging mobile payments market?
