MTN Mobile Money is a joint venture between Standard Bank and MTN that has developed an industry-changing payments technology that allows PIN-based bank cards such as debit cards to be used for the first time in online transactions. This is expected to bring a revolution in online commerce, as the 60% of South Africans with debit cards can now transact online. This technology will have global application.
