We agree that prepaid card users should be given better access to their money via a cell phone than consumers with an array of higher-end bank accounts because managing their money on the go is more vital to them. We launched comprehensive mobile access to our own prepaid cards a few months ago and are seeing a reasonable share of Android phones connecting up to our mobile portal, while the majority of prepaid cardholders are still using non-smart phones. The share of iPhones or Blackberries connecting up to our mobile prepaid card portal remains very small, so Monetise and U.S. Bank would do well to hurry an Android version if they want to be more in sync with their audience.
