[kictanet] Fwd: MPESA NFC and Ecommerce Payment Automation

[Martin Gicheru]

How long ago was this Erick? Because my understanding of the implementation
is totally different from what we've seen in the past. I can't comment on
security, I know quite little on that front, but the part where Safaricom's
implementation is just a tag that allows the POS to call the STK directly
at the last step of payments
<http://forums.techweez.com/t/safaricoms-mpesa-1-tap-a-summary-of-thoughts/1136>,
with visual confirmation of transaction is a winner. The reduction of steps
for a service people actively use is where the win is at.

Martin Gicheru

Morning Listers,

This is a Cool feature for Mpesa. Personally I don`t hold much faith in it,
since secure elements for NFC are expensive, but I guess we`ll have to see
if they manage to make profit on this and what the uptake is.

Through an in-house Start-up, we once had implemented an NFC payment
solution with Vodafone a few years ago at our work canteen, it was mainly
used for employees to pay for food and beverages in the in-house facilities
and on the vending machines. No tags involved – we virtualised a secure
element on the NFC enabled SIM card ;)
However, after analysis we concluded that the model had no commercial
future, only for show.

But I stand to be corrected - Certainly interesting times..
