Hey SXSW, Where Are The Mobile Payments?

Mobile Money

I’ve seen a lot of things at South by Southwest, but what I haven’t seen are mobile payments. I haven’t seen a single person pay for something with their phone or a merchant that would even accept such a payment. Granted, it is hard to find people paying for things at SXSW given the free beer and free food everywhere, but other than a Googler showing off his Nexus and telling me how much he loves Wallet, no one has even mentioned mobile payments.
