Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2011 in the subject Information Management, University of Southern California, language: English, abstract: Over the past few thousand years of evolution, the way we pay has changed shapes and materials. It has gone from gold to coins, paper money to plastic cards and now with Google's venture into the mobile payment industry, we are at the threshold of the next big shift. Google Wallet is a mobile payment Android app that transforms a phone into a wallet. This app utilizes the Near Field Communication (NFC) technology that allows its users to pay for purchased items and redeem offers. At this initial stage of business, there are many features and factors that Google needs to change in order to bring about the mass adoption of this service. As the Business Technology Analysts at Google, we - Kritika Maheshwari, Malvika Saraf and Rohan Handa aim at addressing the hurdles for this technology and the methods to bring it to fruition. In the process we evaluate Google's profit motivation and the bigger strategy behind this service. First, we explain the business approach which describes the importance of the adopted business model. We use Porter's Five Force analysis to determine the competitive intensity in the market followed by SWOT analysis to give recommendations that will help in the mass adoption. Finally, we focus our paper on formulating a strategy canvas in order to study the existing payment methods in comparison to our service. The paper concludes with recommendations to Google for promoting wide customer acceptance.

Book Mobile Payments  Consumer Policy  and the Law

Download or read book Mobile Payments Consumer Policy and the Law written by Nwanneka V. Ezechukwu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobile technology offers an innovative and cost-effective channel for delivering a range of financial services, including mobile payments. In some jurisdictions, mobile payments simply provide a convenient option for facilitating payment transactions. In other jurisdictions, mobile payments are viewed as potentially transformative because they present an opportunity to expand access to financial services. However, as with other innovations, mobile payments raise consumer protection concerns and require robust regulatory mechanisms to address such concerns. Against this backdrop, the book adopts a typology of consumer policy tools which can be used to address the identified consumer concerns. This typology guides the enquiry into the existing consumer protection frameworks applying to mobile payments in selected jurisdictions (Canada, Kenya, and the United Kingdom). The main objective of this endeavour is to identify best practices that national authorities seeking to leverage mobile payments and similar innovations can emulate. This book will be of interest to policymakers, regulators, industry stakeholders, students, and scholars interested in the regulation of innovative financial services, particularly from a consumer protection perspective.

Book The Global Findex Database 2017

Download or read book The Global Findex Database 2017 written by Asli Demirguc-Kunt and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011 the World Bank—with funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation—launched the Global Findex database, the world's most comprehensive data set on how adults save, borrow, make payments, and manage risk. Drawing on survey data collected in collaboration with Gallup, Inc., the Global Findex database covers more than 140 economies around the world. The initial survey round was followed by a second one in 2014 and by a third in 2017. Compiled using nationally representative surveys of more than 150,000 adults age 15 and above in over 140 economies, The Global Findex Database 2017: Measuring Financial Inclusion and the Fintech Revolution includes updated indicators on access to and use of formal and informal financial services. It has additional data on the use of financial technology (or fintech), including the use of mobile phones and the Internet to conduct financial transactions. The data reveal opportunities to expand access to financial services among people who do not have an account—the unbanked—as well as to promote greater use of digital financial services among those who do have an account. The Global Findex database has become a mainstay of global efforts to promote financial inclusion. In addition to being widely cited by scholars and development practitioners, Global Findex data are used to track progress toward the World Bank goal of Universal Financial Access by 2020 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The database, the full text of the report, and the underlying country-level data for all figures—along with the questionnaire, the survey methodology, and other relevant materials—are available at www.worldbank.org/globalfindex.

Book The Digital Transformation of Payment  A Glimpse Into the Future of Mobile Payment Systems

Download or read book The Digital Transformation of Payment A Glimpse Into the Future of Mobile Payment Systems written by Tamara Knecht and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-16 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Market research, grade: 1,0, accadis Hochschule Bad Homburg, language: English, abstract: Mobile payment systems are an innovation that allows people to make contactless payments with a mobile device (such as a smartphone) at the cash register in brick-and-mortar retail outlets without carrying a wallet with credit and debit cards. While other countries have almost entirely adopted and integrated this innovation into their daily lives, adoption rates in Germany remain significantly low. Hence, the objective of this work is to analyze the future of mobile payment systems in Germany with respect to the reasons for adoption or refusal. In particular, the following research question was addressed: Will mobile payment methods replace physical cards in Germany, or will certain factors prevent full adoption?

Book Critical Success Factors of Mobile Payments

Download or read book Critical Success Factors of Mobile Payments written by Christian Hort and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2003-03-24 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2002 in the subject Business economics - Banking, Stock Exchanges, Insurance, Accounting, grade: 1,0 (A), Technical University of Darmstadt (Finance and Banking Management (TUD); Institute of Information Mangement (HSG)), language: English, abstract: In the context of this research, payment is understood as the exchange of monetary value between participants either directly or using an intermediary.5 Mobile payment (mPayment) can be understood as every payment where at least one participant applies mobile phone technology, thus, uses a mobile phone.6 But due to technological progress it seems reasonable to classify other devices like a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) or devices with embedded Radio Frequency (RF) technology as mobile payment devices.7 However, mobile phones today clearly outnumber every other mobile payment device. Penetration rates8 are forecasted to reach almost 80% in Europe by 2005.9 The number of worldwide cellular subscribers is expected to pass one billion by 2003.10 By 2005 there will be more mobile phones worldwide than TVs, fixed line phones, and Personal Computers (PC).11 Driven by the increasing penetration and resulting business opportunities, numerous mPayment solutions have been offered by payment service providers, telcos, and financial institutions. The variety of applicable technologies, the possible linkage between the financial instruments, and the mPayment device combined with different payment scenarios offer a wide landscape of mPayment solutions. Besides technology, questions dealing with consumer expectations, factors thriving or inhibiting a widespread adoption, and with it related penetration strategies for payment service providers have to be carefully researched to develop a successful mPayment.12 5 See Dahlberg/Mallat (2002) p. 651. 6 See Krueger (2001) p. 1; see IWW (2002a) p. 5; see Kreyer/Pousttchi/Turowski (2002) p. 1 f. 7 See Thing/Rouse (2001); cp. chapter 3.2. 8 Users as a percentage of the population. 9 See Barnett/Hodges/Wilshire (2000) p. 164. 10 See Barnett/Hodges/Wilshire (2000) p. 164; see Krueger (2001) p. 3; see GSM Association (2002b). 11 See Datta/Pasa/Schnitker (2001) p. 72. 12 See Dahlberg/Mallat (2002) p. 650.

Book Demystifying China s Innovation Machine

Download or read book Demystifying China s Innovation Machine written by Marina Zhang and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's extraordinary economic development is explained in large part by the way it innovates. Contrary to widely held views, China's innovation machine is not created and controlled by an all-powerful government. Instead, it is a complex, interdependent system composed of various elements, involving bottom-up innovation driven by innovators and entrepreneurs and highly pragmatic and adaptive top-down policy. Using case studies of leading firms and industries, along with statistics and policy analysis, this book argues that China's innovation machine is similar to a natural ecosystem. Innovations in technology, organization, and business models resemble genetic mutations which are initially random, self-serving, and isolated, but the best fitting are selected by the market and their impacts are amplified by the innovation machine. This machine draws on China's multitude manufacturers, supply chains, innovation clusters, and digitally literate population, connected through super-sized digital platforms. China's innovation suffers from a lack of basic research and reliance upon certain critical technologies from overseas, yet its scale (size) and scope (diversity) possess attributes that make it self-correcting and stronger in the face of challenges. China's innovation machine is most effective in a policy environment where the market prevails; policy intervention plays a significant role when market mechanisms are premature or fail. The future success of China's innovation will depend on continuing policy pragmatism, mass innovation, and entrepreneurship, and the development of the 'new infrastructures'.

Book The Rise of Digital Money

Download or read book The Rise of Digital Money written by Mr.Tobias Adrian and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper marks the launch of a new IMF series, Fintech Notes. Building on years of IMF staff work, it will explore pressing topics in the digital economy and be issued periodically. The series will carry work by IMF staff and will seek to provide insight into the intersection of technology and the global economy. The Rise of Digital Money analyses how technology companies are stepping up competition to large banks and credit card companies. Digital forms of money are increasingly in the wallets of consumers as well as in the minds of policymakers. Cash and bank deposits are battling with so-called e-money, electronically stored monetary value denominated in, and pegged to, a currency like the euro or the dollar. This paper identifies the benefits and risks and highlights regulatory issues that are likely to emerge with a broader adoption of stablecoins. The paper also highlights the risks associated with e-money: potential creation of new monopolies; threats to weaker currencies; concerns about consumer protection and financial stability; and the risk of fostering illegal activities, among others.
