Abstract
Mobile Technology's exponential advances in the last century have dramatically altered how the planet works. From the invention of the aircraft, which revolutionized aviation, through the more modern invention of the internet, which has influenced how individuals and companies interact and do business. ATMs (Automated Teller Machines) are a clear example of how banking technology has progressed. This study investigated how the technology adoption theories with focus on, usefulness, ease of use, credibility, attitudes towards use and intention towards use can be utilised to understand if and how mobile banking technologies can be used to substitute for cash demand within the Gauteng, South Africa. It was found that whilst all of the factors researched do play a role in determining if
consumers are likely to use mobile banking technologies over cash, credibility played the most important role. Future studies can expand the geographical reach of the study to see if any variations will be realised
