DT stopt in Duitsland met MyWallet
Deutsche Telekom (DT) stopt de komende maanden met het aanbieden van zijn mobiele betaaldienst MyWallet, schrijven Duitse media. Momenteel zouden klanten hierover al worden geïnformeerd en de bedoeling is dat de dienst voor het einde van dit jaar niet meer actief is. De plannen zouden geen invloed hebben op MyWallet in Polen, waar de app in 2012 debuteerde. DT meldt in een verklaring dat MyWallet in Duitsland zich niet volgens de verwachtingen had ontwikkeld en dat het aantal gebruikers op 'enkele tienduizenden' lag. In april van dit jaar stopte DT al met het online betaalplatform ClickandBuy waarvan MyWallet ook gebruik maakte. Sindsdien werd het aantal features in MyWallet sterk beperkt.
