Preventing mobile payments services from being misused to monetise child sexual abuse content image

The GSMA’s Mobile Alliance Against Child Sexual Abuse Content works to keep mobile services hostile to those wishing to consume or profit from child sexual abuse content (CSAC). This report contains research on current levels of misuse of mobile payment services by commercial CSAC sites – confirming that it is still rare for mobile payment mechanisms to be implicated – and contains good practice guidelines on vetting and monitoring content providers to ensure mobile payments remain hostile to such misuse.
