Global Payments Wrap: Bad News For MasterCard Out Of Australia

This week's global payments news takes us to Australia, the U.K., the Czech Republic, India and Hong Kong. Australia's ANZ Mobile Pay opts for Visa over MasterCard. Following a Visa-only deal announced from NAB Pay late last month, the ANZ move means double bad Australian bank moves for MasterCard.

American Express Global Business Travel's new system promises to "locate all travelers worldwide, visualize which travelers are closest to a potential travel disruption and enables travel and risk managers to not only locate impacted travelers but also communicate with them in real-time. The GBT solution enables companies to communicate with traveller via SMS, email, or a mobile application, and prioritize aid to those travelers with the greatest need," said an Amex statement.
