- 13. But then again, if you were a merchant - you could also just say you accept PayPal too .. But the per-transaction charges of moving online payments to the supermarket point- of-sale are usually prohibitive to retailers, and PayPal wants to keep it’s margins healthy too ..

- 18. Focusing on “transactions” Transactions are the Channel ”I have a pipe and/or network and I want to monetise the investments I made in creating it.” ”I want as much to get through that pipe and the (mobile) phones accessing it as possible.” Transactions via the Channel ”I have stuff I want to do via channels. Enable my consumers to control their bank account, make a payment, get a ticket, see an ad, save or use loyalty points, etc.” ”I need as many (cost effective) channels and pipes to do it.”

- 21. What do we expect from a wallet? A place to store cash? A place to store payment tokens? A place to store other tokens? A personal object? A private object? Something small enough to be portable/mobile? … but … do we need a physical object?
- 22. Then, what do we expect from a transaction device? Identification of myself, my rights and capabilities, memberships. Identification of myself, an authentication tool for payment. Secure, multi-factor Tamper-resistant/evident Personal and private Easy to use … but … do we need a
- 23. Consumers seem to love and trust it • But who will pay for it’s implementation … merchants, banks, mobile operators, handset manufacturers? Given the “app revolution” in so many of our markets, what value does NFC bring to payments? • Convenience? • Put all cards in one apparatus? The phone-shaped wallet .. • Addiction to mobile phones, but not to our wallets? • Leave cards at home? • Add value to transactions? The Consumer’s Perspective on NFC?
- 24. Cards seem to be entrenched in many markets, and are likely to remain in play for the foreseeable future, simply increasing the issuer and acquirer costs. But, is NFC is fundamentally different from previous steps forward in functionality .. ? The Consumer’s Perspective on NFC? SMS Mobile Data Apps Online Shopping & Payment

- So I was thinking about some of the old conceptions of “e-commerce” and the “e-wallet” that we used to have at Netscape and MCI (1994-1996), when we were first deploying HTTPS.

- Hard to ignore card’s ubiquity for retail payments in developed markets.However, for online payments – will this apply in the same manner? Especially for the younger generation ..

- MNOs tend to generate their revenues from “transaction-based business” (sale of SMS, data, voice calls), whereas margins on actual “transactions” for banks are thinning in most markets, and in some cases unprofitable in general.For banks, the question about the value of payments services is a burning one these days – especially for developed world banks, but also for the developing world as well.Deposit-taking and lending are major differentiating business lines of banks, although some MNOs and other parties are starting to make moves in this direction.
- The case is clear for our creativity to make virtualised ecosystems work.But it will take a lot more creativity, usability and value to become a real business driver.And for banks, they also need to achieve this without sacrificing trust, security, longer-term relationships, and (a certain degree of) transparency.
