third party app-developers, reaching out for trust
• Administrative bodies: Defining new regulations to promote m-
payments
22. Conclusion
No generic approach for a unique m-payment.
Various influencing external factors have to be considered.
Forming networks to reach the people and promote the service.
Go with the flow and integrate new technological developments.
