"There is no denying that today the mobile is more accessible than portable water or education in many parts of the country.
While this is also cause to lament how technology has taken precedence over other essentials in life, one company decided to
use it to advantage. Foreseeing the future for mobile money, Bharti Telesoft came up with the concept of Mobiquity or the mobile
money solution'." - Hindu Business Line, India |

"A global association of mobile operators announced Monday the launch of a pilot program, in co-operation with MasterCard, to allow the world's 200 million migrant workers, many of whom do not have bank accounts, to send money to their dependents via mobile phones. The global money transfer pilot, which has the involvement of 19 mobile operators with networks in over 100 countries, representing over 600 million customers, was unveiled at 3GSM, an annual industry trade fair in Barcelona that is expected to attract some 60,000 visitors this year." - Red Herring The Business Technology |

The GSM Association and Western Union announced an agreement to facilitate the development of cross-border mobile money transfer services. Western Union and the GSMA say they are developing a commercial and technical framework that mobile operators can use to deploy services that enable consumers to send and receive low-denomination, high frequency money transfers using their mobile phones. The first commercial services that make use of the framework are anticipated to be
rolled-out beginning in the second quarter of 2008. Link |
