Designing how mobile payments would work

What made it hard

Define the next version of a payment system when paying by phone was still new — and when getting the security wrong was not something you could quietly fix later.

What I did

  • Joined the team in Waterloo defining the next version of Mastercard’s mobile payment kit.

  • Worked through the security and encryption questions that decide how such a thing can be built at all, before anyone writes a line of code.

What came out of it

The specification that the kit given to Mastercard’s partners was built from.

  • Android
  • Payments
  • Security
  • Encryption
