banking

There's a new bank in town, and it's one that sits above the rest, literally, as cloud banking takes off.

The end of cash isn't exactly here, and some places still need it. That's not something a phone can help with... or is it?

We're not afraid to call out the banks when they're not joining mobile payment standards, but when they do, it's kind of like a PSA. And if you're a CommBank owner with Samsung in your life, you have reason to be happy.

Dear CommBank, Westpac, St George, and the other banks that refuse to join Apple and Android Pay, a moment of your time: please use this year to grow up.

As more Aussies embrace their phones to do everything, is it too much to ask all Aussie banks to adopt standard mobile tap payment solutions?

Owners of the Samsung phones from the past couple of years who use an Aussie bank may finally get to pay with their handset.
