Reading AuctionBytes: Obopay Beats eBay's PayPal to the Mobile-Checkout Punch

Obopay, a U.S. mobile-payment service, announced this week its new Obopay Checkout offering The service allows merchants to offer consumers easy instant payments over mobile devices. Last week, PayPal confirmed it was testing a new mobile payment solution after word leaked out on a blog about the tests. PayPal said it was testing mobile checkout with a handful of merchants and that the service would launch sometime this year.

Obopay also announced the launch of its new M-Commerce Solution for Mobile Merchants. According to the company, "this new solution will help transform the mobile phone into a complete marketing, merchandizing and point-of-sale device making it easier for the consumers to pay for what they want, whenever they want." Obopay is demonstrating the new platform in the QUALCOMM booth #1645 during this week's CTIA show.

Obopay CEO Carol L. Realini said, "With Obopay, customers can quickly plug in a comprehensive set of m-commerce capabilities into their digital applications to allow consumers to pay for what they want, whenever they want."
