The seamless integration of mobile technology and financial services has paved the way for increased digital adoption. What is made this possible is proactive participation from all the key stakeholders involved here, i.e. government, regulators, banks and financial institutions, merchants, mobile payments service providers, and investors who today have become a key enabler to leverage the mobile payments ecosystem.”
