Overview:
Payments have been evolving for thousands of years. From the age-old bartering system, to cash, to check to electronic forms of payments, people have found innovative and more efficient ways to make a payment. This evolution has resulted in a significant shift in the current mix of consumer payments: from primarily paper-based (cash or check) to increasingly electronic (e.g. credit, debit and pre-paid) payment methods. The rate of change and the movement to electronic payments has been accelerated by the explosive growth of payments being made in non face-to-face transactions.

Billed as the future of banking, the value of financial transactions carried out through mobile phones has been pegged at $245 billion worldwide by 2014. At the same time, the number of users carrying out transactions using mobile money is expected to total 340 million by 2014, equivalent to 5% of existing mobile subscribers across the globe.
