Fremont, CA: Mobile banking is a method that enables a financial institution's clients to perform a range of financial transactions via a mobile computer, such as a mobile phone or a personal digital assistant. Mobile banking is different from mobile payments, which require the use of a mobile device to pay for products or services either at the point of sale or remotely, analogously to the utilization of a debit or credit card to pay for EFTPOS. The first mobile banking services were provided via SMS, a service known as SMS banking.
