PhonepayPlus Publishes Consultation on App-based Mobile Payments

Published on:

­The UK regulator of premium rate telephone services has started a public consultation on its proposed Guidance for app-based mobile payments.

 PhonepayPlus says that it is working with many industry providers to understand developments in the apps market -- both the opportunities and the threats.

PhonepayPlus' new outcomes-based Code of Practice, which came into force on 1 September, is accompanied by Guidance that sets out their likely interpretation of Code rules. Guidance does not form part of the Code and is non-binding on the decisions of PhonepayPlus Tribunals in the event of an investigation which requires them to adjudicate. However, it is likely that providers who have not followed any Guidance relevant to the service under investigation will be invited to explain how they have complied with the Code by other means.

The 10-week consultation closes on 5 December 2011.
