Mar. Won’t know until the end the year. Sit tight. Jun. Fed’s final rules changed things somewhat by raising the floor and putting the industry on notice that big brother will be watching. Sep. Already happening as networks lop off 15-20 basis points here and there while kicking up the small ticket fees. Nobody happy. Dec. Merchant group sues the Fed for not doing its job correctly. If successful, the game really is over. • A major retailer will take first-mover action to propel mobile payments out of its holding pattern in cottage industry land – doesn’t include early players McDonald’s, Starbucks, Coca Cola, or Jack in the Box. Mar. Major retailers at the Alternative Payments Systems Innovation conference stated that they wanted lower costs, shorter lines, strong security, dial tone reliability, easy implementation, and low maintenance in mobile payments. A tall order; might not happen this year. Jun. Now that the Fed has reneged on its first Durbin offer, it’s likely that retailers will move on with mobile. Sep. Press releases popping all the time with this or that retailer joining Google or Isis. No full-blown movement yet. Dec. Does the Home Depot/PayPal lash-up count? We think so. • Isis, the mobile payments consortium, will launch to a lukewarm response. Mar. Didn’t see any skyrockets when Isis announced its 2012 (really?) transportation pilot in Salt Lake City. Jun. Yet another change of direction announced – entering Austin market for pilots. We see the term “flip-flop” being used a lot. Sep. Isis may actually get stronger through its “heads or tails” approach. Google launch delay has allowed time for others to re-think. Dec. Guess we’ll just have to wait for the Salt Lake City light rail/bus experiment to launch in 2012. • Major retailer profits will grow in the second half of 2011 but we will not be able to cite Durbin as the reason. (And, if the issue is raised, the MPC will brush it off.) Mar. Waiting to see what happens in Q3 and Q4. Jun. Fed Chairman poured cold water on this prediction. Sep. Heartland’s “Durbin Dollars” report is pretty clever and suggests that the money is flowing in already. Where it’s going isn’t clear. Dec. Several articles and a survey stating that consumers have yet to see better pricing as a result of Durbin. Same results as surveys conducted in Australia. Shouldn’t come as a surprise – 1) major retailers are accountable to shareholders just like banks and 2) product pricing is a function of cost, value and competition; there’s never been a direct causal relationship between lower costs and lower prices. Dorado Industries (310) 544-1316 655 Deep Valley Drive, Suite 125-P 4 [email protected] Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 www.doradoindustries.com 2011 Predictions • Having lost the pricing advantage between their products and POS debit, two providers of alternative payments schemes will fold or sell out cheap. Mar. Again tied to the Fed’s final rules – which won’t be ready by April 21 as required. Nice. Jun. Three on a match! FaceCash and Bling Nation shut down to “re-think” their business models. Tempo is both in a ditch and liquidating. Sep. Game over. Dec. Yet new alternative forms of payment keep popping up. 2012 will see a new crop of upstarts and startups. • Starbucks will selectively open use of its proprietary prepaid card to retail partners. Target, with its 1,000 in-store coffee facilities, might be first. Mar. Nothing yet but it’s going to happen! Jun. Still waiting; come on guys, it’s the next logical step. Sep. Guys must be using too much of their decaf product. This is a slam dunk, Starbucks! If Facebook can do it with Credits, so can you. Dec. Guess we missed this one. In the meantime, buyers of new Blackberry phones can no longer rely on Starbucks for 2D app support. Bummer! Dorado Industries (310) 544-1316 655 Deep Valley Drive, Suite 125-P 5 [email protected] Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 www.doradoindustries.com 2012 Predictions • Four new payments schemes designed to maximize mobile phone functionality while eliminating the need for retailer check out lanes will proliferate – two will be launched by merchants, two from third parties. • CFPB or DOJ will put the buy-here, pay-here segment for automobiles and accessories out of business. • At least one of the top ten FIs will be merged out. • Congress will turn its back on efforts to repeal Durbin and/or materially alter Dodd-Frank. • American Express will prevail in its suit with DOJ. • By yearend, China UnionPay’s base of cardholders will be 120 percent of Visa’s. • Nokia’s partnership with Microsoft will save it from extinction.

Congress: New legislation designed to overturn Durbin is well funded and could prevail as the road to the 2012 elections straightens out. Positive CFPB: Not six hours after being anointed by President Obama, Richard Cordray sent out thousands of emails soliciting guidance on which evil- Mixed doing mole the agency should whack first. Looks like student loans may Negative top the list but payments can’t be far behind. Apple: Its sheath of patents surrounding Siri contains veiled as well as Med 1.

  • The Future of Exchanging Value Uncovering New Ways of Spending
    The future of exchanging value Uncovering new ways of spending Our relationship with merchants has moved away from the cash register and we now stand at the edge of a dramatic shift in where, when and how we exchange value. Organisations that cannot work with regulators to engender trust in their solution’s operation or follow the consumer-merchant relationship and provide payment solutions that are not instantaneous and ubiquitous, risk being left behind b Dynamics of the Australian Superannuation System The next 20 years: 2011 – 2030 Contents Exchanging value 1 When we exchange value 4 – Why do some payment solutions succeed, while others fail? 6 Where we exchange value 7 How we exchange value 10 – Thriving in a challenging retail landscape 14 The future of exchanging value 15 – The future of payments providers 16 – Regulation in a more complex environment 18 References 19 About the authors 20 Dynamics of the Australian Superannuation System The next 20 years: 2011 – 2030 1 The future of exchanging value Exchanging Value Consumer behaviour is changing. Where, when and how people purchase the goods they need is evolving, as new technologies and business models remove the need for conventional commercial interactions between customers and merchants. Consumers are making their purchases when and where they discover their need, rather than engaging in a traditional shopping mission to seek out the goods, and often bypassing conventional payments solutions in the process. This might be as simple as clicking the Buy Now button at the end of an online book review, instead of noting the title with the intention of seeking the book later.
