<p>Is there a technical reason why there is no mobile wallet software for BlackBerry users?</p>

<p>Is it just because the marketplace on BlackBerry is awkward? Or are there other technical problems?</p>

<p>Are the Android and iPhone markets easier (less strict) to upload apps to?</p>

I'd guess most wallet software developers first create it for their own phones, and they probably don't use BlackBerry...

Bitcoin is a currency of the future, Blackberry is a mobile OS of the past... unlikely they'll ever meet. And if they *do* meet, it won't be very nice (fewer and fewer people will be using Blackberry, so an eventual app won't have many users, with everything this implies).

@Lohoris On what exactly do you base those claims? BlackBerry phones have been gaining a higher share of the market in the last few years in the UK.

# What mobile wallet software is available for BlackBerry?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2011-12-27)

Is there a technical reason why there is no mobile wallet software for BlackBerry users?

Is it just because the marketplace on BlackBerry is awkward? Or are there other technical problems?

Are the Android and iPhone markets easier (less strict) to upload apps to?
