Buy stuff! The number of mobile payment users is expected to grow from just more than 100 million worldwide users in 2006 to more than 200 million in 2009 according to the Yankee Group. That translates into revenue growth from $800 million to $1.8 billion in revenue between 2006 and 2009. That growth could be increased dramatically if a revenue sharing agreement can be developed among mobile carriers, credit card associations, issuing banks and retailers/merchants. This is better than debit cards for small purchases, don't you think?
