Mobile Wallet: Location-based Commerce and Peer-to-Peer Payments

World-wide, mobile commerce and peer-to-peer payments are in their infancy. While Japan and Korea are leading, France, Finland, and the U.K. are just moments behind. Key South American and Central American countries are exploring business process and market acceptance of mobile commerce. African nations, challenged by politics, have seen recent developments in peer-to-peer payments collapse while India has seen success. And, the United States and Canada, leaders in banking business process and industry regulation design are aggressively pursuing global partnerships.
