Abstract

Mobile Payment services have become an essential for every human being at the personal level and professional level. To create global and open standard solutions for mobile payments, there are number of consortia that have taken the initiatives. However, none of the consortia is widely accepted due to lack of security and many companies participate in more than one consortium. The current status of the consortia is at infancy stage. A study reveals that there is no specific and global mobile payment consortium for educational institutions to collect the fees as well as for student community to pay the fees. To overcome, an innovative model has been proposed namely, Mobile Payment Consortia System which provides an end-to-end security among the mobile user, institution, MPCS server and the institution bank using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). This paper mainly focuses on secure communication between the mobile user and the payment gateway namely, MPCS Server.
