Mobile shopping comes to the UK

We are not talking about a van that comes around your street, this is real mobile phone shopping. 2shop4 is new to the UK and they do that they are the first company to offer this type of service in the UK.

All that is needed is the user sends a text code (84777) and then you are set up to receive WAP alerts. These alerts may be a product or a service, and if you like it you can order it and pay for it securely via any one of the many credit cards they accept or even Pay Pal if you prefer.

This takes mobile shopping into a new direction, as buying products via a mobile phone has been limited to phone related items, but for now the jury will be out on this one, until the full serviced is launched in October 2007.
