That's interesting. I went to a presentation last year where the presenter (I believe she was from paypal) was saying that the US was many years behind several other countries on payment methods, especially SMS.

Payment methods available to consumers via banks. Yes, other countries are farther ahead.

Online commerce is a different story where the US is far ahead of the rest of the world.
