Thanx!
I don't understand how this document is supposed to help the industry.

China which wasn't mentioned have the by far biggest mobile payment market.
It owned by Alibaba who works like a bank as well.
They are currently trying to build their own phones as well including getting other device vendors supporting their AliPay system.

It is possible that the mPos part will be the slowest part of it all.
My personal belief is that EMV will not prevail because cards <<>> devices.

These organizations operate under NDAs and will therefore have very little influence
on the future mobile payment market and system.
