What is mCASH?
mCASH has developed a new payment solution that connects banks, merchants and customers through a real-time infrastructure. With the mCASH app you can connect your mobile phone to a bank account, credit account and credit card. You get all your money in one place. You can transfer money to any phone number in Norway. Money received is available instantly, regardless of your bank connections. Merchants can offer their customers a fast, convenient, and safe way to pay with their phone at the cash register, online, and directly from an advertisement.
mCASH is the only payment solution of its kind today. Merchants don’t need any new hardware. mCASH works in any payment situation and is already supported by most Norwegian cash register and online payment systems. Customers can pay online with mCASH, whether they are browsing on a computer, tablet or phone. You’ll never have to bother with Java, BankID, typing credit card numbers or filling out forms again. On top of a novel payments infrastructure, mCASH offers value-added services like electronic receipts, customer identification, and the possibilities for an enriched shopping experience. mCASH makes payments easier while giving merchants new opportunities for increased customer base and profits.
