Number of mobile money users globally to exceed 200 million by 2013February 8, 2011 - 15:56 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - According to the latest analysis from Juniper Research, the need to access basic financial services by users in developing countries will drive the short term growth of active mobile money users globally to exceed 200 million by 2013. Currently, about 100 million people use these services. Juniper Research's new report also cautions that whilst there are several high profile examples of extremely successful mobile money services, each new rollout needs an established, robust and extensive local distribution network to ensure access to the service. Further findings from the Juniper Research Mobile Money Transfer report include: the market has been boosted recently by person-to-person money apps in developed countries to enable people to easily make social transfers such as split the cost of meals, or pay the babysitter; nearly 40% of active users in 2015 will be in the Africa & Middle East region, cellular-news.com reported.
