Mobile Payment Solution- An Alternative To Online Payment Problem

Have you at any point in time encountered problems with online payment ? I for one I have encountered so many of such problems. And this can be very frustrating sometimes to you as either a buyer or a seller.
It is no news that one major problem with doing business ether online or offline is payment solution. The problem is more pronounced for those who do business online. Whatever stands to be a problem always have a solution-only time will tell.

Without effective and reliable payment solution the purpose of every business will definitely have a set back in terms of growth and expansion. This is because gone are those days when people exchange goods for good and services for services which is popularly referred to as trade by barter. The purpose of every business venture is to maximize profit. It is one thing to have products and services to offer to your clients but it is another thing entirely to get paid for your products and services.
There are so many online payment solutions. The popular ones are paypal, escrow payza  , perfect money , pexpay, etc. But each and every one of these payment solutions have their pros and cons. Taking paypal for instance, if you are familiar with the internet you will agree with me that paypal is more or less the most popular, secured and reliable online payment solution. However, their major draw-back is  that they don't accept all countries. This as a matter of fact has made some online businesses have a set back. Although some persons still have a way of making things happen ( I believe you know what I mean by that, lol).

Paramount of note also is the fact that due to civilization and advancement in technology people have left traditional means of doing business(trade by barter and  offline trade) to modern methods such as internet marketing and even now mobile marketing is not being left out especially now that smartphones including iPhones, androids, to mention but a few  are now available. Having observed that mobile marketing is fast spreading hence I decided to make a research on mobile payment solution and so I could not hold back my findings and so decided to  share with you as well.

What is Mobile Payment Solution?
Mobile payment solution is the use of mobile phones in completing a transaction between buyers and sellers.This mobile payment solution simply makes use of text messages in the form of SMS ( Short Service Message) . It is particularly important since some persons who do not have the aforementioned online payment solutions as well as credit cards can still do business with the use of their mobile/cellphones. How is this done? Normally, the charge for such transactions are deducted from the air time they have on their mobile/cellphones with the aid of the  network operators or the service provider of their mobile/cellphones.
Apart from that, it will be very useful for buyers/sellers who don't want to use the online payment solutions for security reasons. Although there are many of such mobile payment solutions but one observation is that most of them are restricted to some countries or some continents until I stumbled upon the one I am about sharing with you as well as some of its features and peculiarities.

Which Mobile Payment solution am I referring to here? It is fortumo . Fortumo is a premium SMS payment provider.  Fortumo  has its headquartered in Tartu, Estonia, very close to Nokia’s home country and original hotbed of premium SMS action, Finland.

(4)No Setup Fees, No Monthly Fees And no minimum volume commitments. Just a simple % per each transaction. We only make money when you are making money!

Why not take your business to a higher level by accepting mobile payments as a seller?Besides  with it you can maximize the the sales of your digital products such as ebooks and apps that people can't buy from the likes of clickbank that don't accept some countries as well. Apart from that you you can receive you payments by bank transfer, paypal, moneybookers or webmoney. Thus this is an opportunity for you to make more money too.

It is also ideal for you as a buyer who wish to buy products and yet you lack the means to do online  payment or maybe for security reasons especially when you don't want to give out your credit card information. Then this is the opportunity you need to beat online payment problems.
