Use Android handset to Charge Your Visa Account

In the not-too-distant future, Visa credit cards may merge with cell phones. The card giant announced Friday that it is developing applications for Google’s Android operating system and upcoming Nokia smart phones. Visa’s Android application will allow the holders of Chase Visa cards to make mobile payments and receive real-time financial information.

In Japan and Europe have been using their phones to buy goods and services for some time. Similar uses in the United States have been slower to catch on, he said, because consumers are not enthusiastic about processing such payments through their telecommunication carriers.
