We mentioned this in the past about BBM Money App To Launch in Indonesia, seems like we are one step closer to that. Sending money via BBM-to-BBM is something I am looking forward to myself. Mobile banking service provider, Monitise says that an Indonesian bank is to launch its BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) mobile payments service following a successful trial.
BBM Money feature has been created by Indonesian financial institution PermataBank and BlackBerry, with the support of AGIT Monitise Indonesia, a joint venture between Monitise and Astra Graphia Information Technology (AGIT), which is part of Astra International Group.
“It is incredibly exciting that Indonesia is the first country in the world to develop a person-to-person payment service such as this. This launch is a ringing endorsement for how businesses with different commercial needs can collaborate in the fast-growing mobile, payments and banking space,” said Monitise Asia Pacific Chief Executive Darren Sugden.
