RBI Mobile Banking Guidelines

Quick excerpts from RBI’s Mobile Banking guidelines:

  • When a bank offers mobile payments service, it may be ensured that customers having mobile phones of any network operator should be in a position to request for service.
  • The long term goal of mobile payment framework in India would be to enable funds transfer from account in one bank to any other account in the same or any other bank on a real time basis irrespective of mobile network a customer has subscribed to. This would require inter-operability between mobile payments service providers and banks and development of a host of message formats.
