Mobile is no exception. A network effect is needed. A network effect depends on: Achieving a network effect for mobile payments is hampered by both real and perceived hurdles: 1. Enough consumers using A▪ Basic concerns: mobile to make it – Failure of contactless cards to achieve adoption compelling for merchants – Lack of a single standard for mobile payments to adopt – Low, but growing penetration of smartphones 2. Enough mobile enabled – Consumer perception of security merchants to make B▪ Consumer payment preferences and behaviors: adoption meaningful for – The mobile wallet will need to allow for the same basic consumers payment preferences that consumers have today C▪ Cost benefits to the merchant: – Merchants want to know that enough consumers will demand mobile payments, that it merits upgrading their existing systems, and implementing new marketing programs The most problematic hurdle is simply the lack of a clear value proposition for both merchants and consumers. Mobile payments are not necessarily faster, cheaper, or more reliable; and on their own they may not provide enough value for consumers or merchants to shift payment behavior. To be successful they must partner with other value added products SOURCE: Team analysis McKinsey & Company | 14 GCI-AAA123-20110606- The competitive stalemate over mobile is beginning to thaw… or is it?
