  • the Swindon project illustrates some possibilities, yet it is limited to local conditions in both technical and market scope in that it is not adaptable to personal mobility and the global market place. Individuals want to move globally without hindrance and they want to have momentary access to the same system for buying, selling, registe ⁇ ring and updating their economical transactions without the delay of waiting for account statements before making a transaction. Creditors can also effectively realize better cash management by this kind of immediate account updating.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve the problems mentioned above in a general and mobile manner so as to give the user security, accessibility and speediness when economical transactions are made anywhere in the world - MOBIPAY ® , GLOBALPAY ® , UNIPAY ® services for payment transactions.
