Major lender looks to increase mobile power A number of financial and technology companies are now attempting to convince consumers that they will be better served using their smartphones to make credit card purchases, and an executive from one major credit card lender believes it will take more cooperation to make that happen.

Mobile credit card payment systems are viewed by many in the financial services industry to be the next great frontier in purchasing platforms, and an American Express executive believes that companies will need to work together to make consumer adoption a reality, according to a report from the tech news site CNET.

Currently, a number of tech and financial companies are developing their own payment systems, which may make it more difficult for consumers to participate, particularly if they have several cards issued by different lenders.

By being able to store coupons and create budgets using a smartphone that can also make purchases, consumers may be able to trim the amount of credit card debt they take on and, in doing so, reduce debt for their whole household.

*Fees are based on the amount of enrolled debt and may vary from state to state. Individual results may vary based on your ability to save sufficient funds to complete a debt settlement program, the creditors in your individual portfolio, and amount of debt enrolled. Monthly payments under the program may be less than your monthly minimums before enrollment. Estimates and statements made regarding program performance are based on historical results and the testimonials provided were dependent on the facts of the specific client’s situation. We cannot guarantee settlement results or that your debt balances will be lowered by a specific amount or percentage or that your debts will be resolved within a specific period of time. Any use of the term “debt-free” only applies to accounts that have successfully enrolled and completed a debt settlement program. Debtmerica, LLC is an enrollment agent for debt settlement programs and back-end services are provided by third-party companies. Debtmerica, LLC and/or the back-end service provider will not receive any fees until the terms of your debt have been altered with one or more of your creditors. While programs are designed to reduce your debt balances, creditors are under no contractual obligation to negotiate or accept settlement offers from our service providers. We do not assume consumer debts, make monthly payments to creditors, or provide tax, bankruptcy, accounting or legal advice or credit repair services. Please contact a tax professional to discuss potential tax consequences of settled debts. The use of debt settlement services will likely adversely affect your creditworthiness, may result in you being subject to collections or being sued by creditors or collectors and may increase the outstanding balances of your enrolled accounts due to the accrual of fees and interest. However, negotiated settlements obtained on your behalf resolve the entire account, including all accrued fees and interest. Photographs of persons used in this website are not actual clients.
