Telenor Launches Mobile Payments Trial

Telenor has launched a 250-person mobile payments trial using near field communications with DnB NOR and MasterCard.

Each member of the 250-person test group is equipped with a Samsung mobile phone and a special SIM card. The SIM card contains information for the person’s MasterCard, issued by the Norwegian bank DnB NOR. By holding the phones up to a card reader in selected stores around the city, this group of testers can buy everything from shampoo to pizza slices using their phones alone.
