電訊商手機錢包專家:靠得住

支付公司推優惠吸引市民裝手機錢包,但儲錢至手機始終有擔憂。支付保安專家指有能力取得儲值支付牌照的公司均靠得住,而他相信香港電訊(06823)、數碼通(00315)及TNG均具備取得牌照的資格。

三企具攞牌資格

支付保安公司Nexusguard Consulting行政總裁龐博文指:「公司跟足(金管局)指引便是安全的。」又透露上述三家公司正透過Nexusguard Consulting獲取行業標準(Industrial Standard),以便向金管局申請儲值支付牌照。他稱,三家公司均具備取得牌照的資格,認為風險大多來自手機本身的安全問題。

他舉例,如將手機錢包安裝於越獄手機中,「等於放乾淨的食物入骯髒的籃子」,輕則損失金錢,重則身份被竊,故呼籲市民不要自行更改手機操作權限。

《支付系統及儲值支付工具條例》下的儲值支付工具及零售支付系統監管制度已於去年生效,現有的儲值支付服務公司或新市場營運者有一年時間向金管局申請牌照。一年申請期結束後,支付公司若未有牌照即屬違法。

We would like to announce to our users that we have decided to exit the SVF business due to our consideration for strategic corporate restructuring and realignment.
