Carphone Warehouse and Monitise form partnership


Mar 20, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- The Carphone Warehouse, a mobile phone retailer, and Monitise, a provider of mobile banking solutions, have announced a partnership to provide mobile financial services.

The initial phases of the partnership will see the two businesses promoting mobile money services to consumers through stores, websites, call center agents and other marketing initiatives, said Monitise.



Alastair Lukies, CEO of Monitise Group, said: "Mobile money is going to revolutionize the way we interact with our finances. I get an alert via SMS when something happens on my account and can then enter a secure application to move money around instantly. We have customers sending money overseas via mobile phone and others paying their bills while on the train on the way to work." http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
