The need of the hour is leveraging technology in Indian banking for providing
affordable and cost-effective banking services to the masses through multi-
delivery channels
Explanation in brief for some of the above future payment technologies are;
1. Mobile payments would definitely be the future; even National
Payments Council of India (NPCI) is gearing-up for introducing 24x7
payment system via Mobiles in India and it is in the Pilot phase.
2. Mobile Payment System Based on RFID: How it works?
a. Setup: First the user signs an agreement for mobile payment
with telecom and also with bank. Then software and the
certificate is downloaded. Then the keys will be generated
and the mobile payment device is achieved
b. Payment: First the information on the tag is read and is sent
to the mobile payment platform. Then mobile payment
platform sends the payment information. Now the client
enters the type of payment, Bank name and password. Now
if bank validates the information is transferred into
merchant’s account. In this payment system the transactions
are conducted online. Payment is made from bank account
c. Security: Security measures in this system are ID
certification, encrypted information transportation, verification
of the data integrality, confidentiality of data and anti-denial
requirement.
3. Near Field Communication technology (data exchange over short
distances) using mobiles might well be the next generation payment
system
a. What exactly is NFC?: NFC means near-field
communication, ie data exchange over short distances.
Equips you from a phone with an NFC chip, it can
communicate with a receiver or with other mobile phone, so
as to exchange data. NFC is particularly useful in that it
offers the possibility to pay by mobile phone.
b. How do you pay by NFC mobile phone?: Imagine a
business that is equipped with an NFC-receiver at the
checkout. The customer selects the goods to be bought and
go to the checkout. The cashier scans the merchandise, the
customer takes out his cell phone and holds it in front of the
receiver. The receiver detects the phone in the split second
and charged to the customer’s account from the
corresponding amount.
c. How safe is NFC?: For some it is the future, for other
reasons of data protection very serious. Although there is an
encryption of the data could, for example, engineered
devices easily retrieve more data than allowed. It is also
known that even the best encryption can be cracked.
Another negative aspect is that NFC can also be used for the
transmission of advertising. Especially from Apple is
expected when the iPhone 5 should be equipped with an
NFC chip, Apple’s own advertising platform iAd used for the
transmission of advertising on the smartphone
4. Sound Based e-Commerce via Mobile phone: How it works?
a. The sound based system is a wireless web service. The
basic operation is that the mobile produces sound which is
converted into a number (probably credit card number),
which gives the user details to the shopkeeper. Web services
are network-based application components with services-
oriented architecture. Customers who receive a unique
sound-based file to their mobile phones through a web
service are converted customer’s payment information
5. Biometrically authenticated payments from ATMs
