- Biometrics make a comeback at the point of sale. Fingerprint verification and other biometrics are now seeing a resurgence, led by newer approaches that enable consumers to have more control over the storage of their biometric template and expectations that Apple will employ fingerprint ID in a future iPhone. Can biometrics provide consumers with the level of trust in mobile wallets needed to gain widespread acceptance? See page 2.
- Marketers flock to Passbook as Apple’s ease of integration and location-based alerts prove irresistible. The ease of integration, low cost of entry, wide distribution, geolocation capabilities and ability to innovate on top of Apple’s Passbook APIs are enabling the proto mobile wallet app to gain unprecedented traction. We take a look at how marketers are building innovative services with Passbook and at the lessons other mobile wallet providers can learn from its success. See page 8.
- Lack of reasons to switch overtake consumers’ mobile payment security concerns. Surveys conducted in the US and the UK have found that, while worries over the security of mobile payments remain a concern, the perceived lack of any real benefit to using a mobile phone to make a payment is now the biggest barrier to adoption. See page 14.
