I am not 100% sure that mobile payment is the correct term, that to me implies
using your phone for contactless payment.
The English term used in these cases is Pay by Phone.
Here payment can be made using coins, debit/credit cards (contactless or chip
and pin) so I must admit I have ignored this method as it seems a lot of
faffing compared to my contactless debit card.
