Observations &

23. PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS
• Aussies tend to use cash and
Finns a card for low value
payments
• Aussies prefer credit over debit
in card payments and love the
rewards programs
• Interest rates are significantly
lower in Finland

30. PAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS
• Payment is just one part of a
purchase, always consider the
broader context
• Retraining ‘muscle memory’
takes significant effort
• The most seamless payment
experience is no physical
transaction at all, like Uber…
• …but how do you track your
spend when the transactions
become invisible?
