Billing Revolution Intro's Mobile Billing Service

Billing Revolution is out to, well, revolutionize, mobile payments. OK, so the start-up really just wants to make it fast and safe to use a credit card to buy stuff from a cell phone, something that would benefit consumers, content providers, carriers and advertisers - basically the whole food chain.

Taking a page from Amazon's book of success, Billing Revolution has developed a single-click solution that can be integrated into an m-commerce site.

According to a post on TechCrunch, the first time you buy something a site that uses Billing Revolution, you're taken to a Billing Revolution page where you enter your credit card info (presumably there's some sort of safeguard in place to keep that info secure). Once that’s done, you'll get an SMS receipt with a link that you click to authenticate the transaction. After that, whenever you want to make a purchase from a Billing Revolution-enabled site, you'll only have to click the "buy" button and the item will be billed to your credit card.

Sounds pretty cool, if it actually works properly, is secure and if the company is able to sign up enough merchants to entice consumers - and enough consumers to entice merchants.
