Point Roberts WA, NEW YORK, NY – November 9, 2015 - Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including tech, reports on the rapidly growing mobile payment sector in the US and some of the key challenges it faces in increasing consumer acceptance and adoption.

Investor Ideas recently attended the Money20/20 2015 Conference held at the Venetian in Las Vegas, one of the largest events covering payments and financial services innovation. From keynotes to panel sessions, to product launch tracks, the audience was told over and over about the robust growth anticipated in mobile payments over the coming years.  

One of the experts speaking was Bryan Yeager Analyst at eMarketer Inc. (www.emarketer.com) who presented a session track, Market Overview: Mobile Wallets & Payments, t talked about the robust growth of mobile payments in the US. His firm says Mpayment transaction values will triple in 2016. In terms of mobile payment user growth it is projected to grow to 37.5 million users in 2016, up 62%.

In spite of the tremendous growth there are a few factors that are acting as inhibitors and as Bryan Yeager framed it in in his presentation, the most notable is “Security, Security, and Security.”

He cited that “57% of US internet users cited security concerns the main reason they were hesitant to use mobile payment services.”

(Walker Sands, Dec. 2014)

He also noted “62% of US smartphone owners that don’t use or plan to use a mobile wallet cited worries about security as the reason.”
