A third level of membership, International Payment System Companies, consists of card payment account companies and is not open for general membership. This level of membership provides payment card companies with a permanent seat on the Board of Directors and certain voting privileges on topics affecting the legal status of the Mobile Payment Forum and approval of technical specifications. The Forum's focus is on practical solutions to mobile commerce payments and to deliver solutions that can be utilized with payment card accounts. For this reason, some specific issues require a consensus among the payment card companies and the general Board of Directors to be approved. Most issues, however, like the prioritization of work items, are managed through general voting procedures.
