Ericsson,Visa to develop mobile payment systems


STOCKHOLM, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Swedish telecoms equipment maker Ericsson <LMEb.ST> and credit card company Visa International have signed a deal to develop secure payments over the Internet via a mobile terminal, Ericsson said on Wednesday.

The two companies will develop a payment solution for mobile electronic commerce using Ericsson's Bluetooth wireless wallet.

A smart card can be inserted into the wireless wallet, which can then connect to mobile devices through Bluetooth technology -- where devices can communicate by short range radio frequency rather than cables.

The service will allow customers to buy cinema tickets over the Internet using WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) technology-based mobile phones, which are currently being launched.

Ericsson shares were up 6.5 crowns at 391.5 crowns in a positive market.
