Traditionally, if you wanted to move money around, save cash, pay a bill, purchase something at a store, or otherwise have some sort of systemic access to your cash as you moved around - you needed a “bank”. In fact, you couldn't do any of these things in the past without a bank. Despite the fact you might have opted to just use cash and stay 'off...

Eurograbber, a Trojan that transfers itself from a user’s PC to their mobile phone has come to light, reportedly having so far defrauded banking customers out of over €36m. The simple reason for this is that many banks are reliant on SMS as a means of authenticating the user and hence authorising online transactions. Because Trojans such as Eurogr...

The relationship between banking and small business financing is not a healthy one. Recently this has become more extreme as media attention increasingly focuses on the failures of high street banks in the lending stakes. Now we see banks, non-banks and politicians alike entering the fore in a bid to support small businesses. But given current ec...

One of the most hotly contested topics of 2012 has surely got to be the Native versus HTML5 debate. I can understand why. We live in a world surrounded by screens. Different size screens for different platforms. Different interactions for different device types. Everything is an interface, and it’s become apparent that your brand needs a pr...

Mobile is the most disruptive consumer product of all time. We went from aspiring to have a computer in every home to having a computer in every pocket. Soon it will be a computer in every object. The adoption of mobile devices has driven the more social, more informed and more location aware lives we now live. There has been a lot of debate ab...
