Abstract
This article gives an overview over some of the most promising electronic payment systems: iKP, SET (as harmonization of Mastercard-SEPP and VISA-STT), Express, First Virtual, CyberCash, Ecash, CAFE, Mondex, Ravensburg’s GeldKarte. We describe their technical and application aspects. We highlight the role of smartcards for their usage and their applicability for the Internet.
As an introduction to the overview, we present some theoretical considerations on digital money. We formulate critical requirements for digital money and how money can appropriately be expressed by digital means. We also discuss the problem of fair exchange of money versus goods.
