MasterCard and mobile banking solutions firm
mFoundry are collaborating to offer banks and credit unions more
mobile payment options.

Mastercard has finalised its investment in
mFoundry, on 1 December 2011 and is now targeting credit unions in
the US to grow its mobile contactless payments distribution
network

The initiative will combine MasterCard’s Tap
& Go PayPass technology with mFoundry’s mobile financial
services platform to make mobile contactless payments available to
more consumers.

Mobile PayPass enables NFC payments on any
PayPass-enabled terminal at a merchant checkout.

The two organisations will collaborate further
to provide mobile operators with an application that supports
Mobile PayPass.

officer, MasterCard said:
