      The Rise of Mobile Payment and Financial Apps

      Before you believe that mobile payment is the future, remember what happened with credit cards. In the early 2000s, credit cards were the future because they made it easier to buy things and pay for services. But then came identity fraud and other security issues that made people stop using them. The same thing is happening with mobile payment but on a larger scale. It’s no longer just about making it easier to make payments and buy things. That’s why this article focuses on why now is the right time to start investing in mobile payment companies instead of waiting until they take over the market.

      What is a Mobile Payment App?

      A mobile payment app is a type of app that lets you use your phone as a wallet. Some of these apps allow you to make in-person purchases, while others are designed solely for online purchases. Some apps are designed specifically for business use. These apps let you pay employees, vendors, and others with a simple tap of your phone. Mobile payment apps have been around for a while now, but they didn’t really take off until 2011. In 2011, Apple released iOS 6, which included functionality for the Near Field Communication standard.

      Near Field Communication is a technology that uses radio signals to allow two devices to communicate a few centimetres apart. This allows you to open an app on your phone, hold your phone up to a scanner, and pay without having to take your wallet out of your pocket. This made mobile payment even easier. Since then, mobile payment apps have become more widespread.

      The Future of Financial Services is Digital

      Financial services are set to become more digital. The market for digital financial services is forecasted to grow from $13.4 trillion in 2017 to $41.2 trillion by 2026, according to Zenith. Digital financial services already account for a significant share of the market, with global annual revenue of $3.4 trillion in 2017, according to Zenith.

      However, digital financial services are still underdeveloped, which is why the continued growth of the digital financial services market is important. The growth of the digital financial services market is mainly driven by the increasing penetration of smartphones, the introduction of new apps, and the increasing number of online transactions.

      Cryptocurrency and Blockchain will make Payments more Secure

      Cryptocurrencies are becoming an important part of the financial system. In fact, more than one-third of the top alternative money systems worldwide use cryptocurrencies. And crypto money isn’t just for investing anymore. With the rise of blockchain, the underlying technology that powers cryptocurrencies, it’s starting to gain mainstream adoption. Blockchain is a decentralized ledger that’s been around since the 1980s. It first started to gain popularity when people saw the potential to use it to store financial information.

      Now blockchain can be used to make payments more secure. By using a decentralized ledger to track transactions, blockchain makes it harder to tamper with information. This makes it harder to trick someone into giving up their money. But it comes with a downside. It was more expensive. And because it’s decentralized, each transaction has to be verified by multiple computers around the world. This makes it more time-consuming and resource-intensive.

      New Payment Apps will change the way we pay

      Apps are changing the way people pay. With digital payments, you can pay everyone in your life with just their phone number. This can be particularly helpful for people with disabilities who may not be able to use cash or credit cards. Virtual wallets can also help people keep track of their finances, whether it’s tracking spending and savings, or sharing funds with family members.

      On the merchant side, there are now apps that allow businesses to accept payments from customers using their phones. A growing number of companies are using mobile wallets. This includes retailers, restaurants, and other service providers. Payment apps can also help you stay on top of your finances. Some apps can help you budget, while others can help you save money. They can even help you invest.

      PayPal: The rise of independent payments processors

      PayPal is one of the oldest payment apps and one of the most popular. It’s one of the few payment apps that let you use your credit card too (although most people use it for payments between friends and family). PayPal works by letting you link your bank account and make payments directly from your bank account.

      If you don’t have money linked to your PayPal account, you can use a debit card or transfer money from your friend’s or family member’s account. PayPal is powered by payment processors like Acquia and Stripe that operate outside of PayPal’s system. These processors let you accept payments from anyone, even people who don’t have a PayPal account.

      Venmo: Paying friends and family back

      Venmo is a popular app designed specifically for paying back friends and family. It works a lot like PayPal, letting you link a credit card or bank account and then send a Venmo payment. Like PayPal, Venmo works with independent payment processors like Acquia and Stripe that operate outside of Venmo’s system. This means that Venmo payments can go anywhere a Venmo account is accepted and that Venmo accounts can be linked to other accounts.

      Venmo’s free Venmo Cash feature lets you send money to other people for free. And if you have a Venmo account linked to your bank account, Venmo lets you easily transfer money to a friend’s bank account.

      Google Wallet: An alternative payment system for people who use Android devices

      Google Wallet works like a virtual credit card that lets you shop online without sharing your actual credit card information. You can buy things at stores that accept Google Wallet using your physical phone as a payment terminal. Google Wallet works with Android devices. But even if you don’t use Android, you may still be able to use Wallet. Google Wallet works with debit cards by letting you add money to your Wallet account.

      You can then use your Wallet account like a debit card at stores that accept debit cards. Some banks also let you link your Wallet account to your bank account. So you can use your Wallet account like a checking account.

      Square: A hardware-based payment system that uses a base station and reader

      Square is a new hardware-based payment system that uses a small square device and a reader. After you set it up, a person can swipe the reader over your card and then sign for the payment to let you know it was read correctly. Square has been making waves for years, but only recently has it been able to get merchants on board. A square is a good option for businesses that want to start accepting credit card payments but have resisted doing so in the past because they were worried about the cost of switching to a new system.

      What do you need to invest in mobile payment companies?

      The first thing to know is that it’s not necessarily a good idea to get into the mining of cryptocurrencies, trading them, or investing in hedge funds that trade in crypto money. Those are all different ball games. What you should focus on is finding a company that offers an app that is accepted by both consumers and merchants. And once you find one, it’s important to understand the business model. The business model you want to look for is the following. You want to find a payment company that has a fee it charges the merchants for accepting payments.

      You want to find a company that makes its money by charging consumers for using its app. This may seem backward. Why would you want to charge consumers for using a product? The reason is that it’s important for the company to be profitable. If it isn’t profitable, it will go out of business. After all, there is no point in charging consumers for using an app if the company ends up going out of business.

      Conclusion

      Mobile payments are now a reality. But how will it affect our financial habits? Mobile payments are here to stay. They’re easy to set up, more private than cash, and can be used at any store that accepts credit cards. But what will be next? Will these new payment systems take over completely? Or will we continue to use our traditional banking systems? It’s too soon to tell. But one thing’s for sure: You’ll need to keep up with these new developments to stay on top of your finances.

      Yes, I am a cat. I am not wearing shades, it's the trendiest version of google glasses. You see it just helps me look deeper into the intergalactic realm to find mice. At Appedus, I just jump on the keyboard in a frenzy, to what my human slaves call "writing an article". But they never give me a mouse to play with, I wonder why. If you are reading this then you know the cat talk. You are one of us. You are just a slave to this human form. You don't know yet. You will know soon. You puny humans. (Yes the cat @producthunt is my rich cousin)
