Given that 6 billion people have access to a mobile phone, the mobile payment opportunity is enormous. Studies by Visa show that Americans are twice as likely to carry a phone as cash; those between 18 and 34 are four times more likely. Mobile payments doubled between 2012 and 2013 to $1 billion. eMarketer predicts mobile payments will top $58 billion by 2017, and phones are just the beginning of e-cash. Mobile payment systems also promise to help governments run smarter, especially if they result in less use of cash. Cash currently floats around pockets, registers, and mattresses unaccounted for. If economists and statisticians could analyze the movement of money in real time, underlying patterns might help show the causes of poverty, bubbles, or inefficiencies.

(TLPY), through its Dubai subsidiary, TelUPay (M.E) FZE, has successfully completed its pilot program testing its secure, electronic, Prepaid Mobile Airtime system servicing the Micronesia region.

ABOUT

Mobile ATM (ATM Lite)
Mobile ATM (ATM Lite)
This product enables consumers to have all the facilities of an ATM service. Registration with the user's bank allows the consumer to pre-authorize an amount of money to be available to spend. This can be in the form of paying for goods and services or enabling fast cash access. Registered retailers will be linked to the users mobile and be paid securely for goods or guaranteed finds when offering cash back.
The available funds are held centrally in a Nostro account on behalf of the participating bank. Settlement can be done daily or more frequently. The benefit to the consumer is ready access to liquid funds whether holding a bank account or not. The benefit to the retailer is they can reduce their cash holding and therefore save costs, and the benefit to the banks is they retain access to the "available "funds until they are spent.
