Disruptive Innovation In The Fintech Industry: When a bank that that only exists in the virtual world allows P2p transactions, offers contactless physical cards, virtual cards, allows payment without transaction fees and gives cashback to users_ the financial world is quick to notice. And notice Opay they did. Opay is one of the digital-only banks fighting for customer space in terms of money and membership. It is joined by Palmpay, Moniepoint, Kuda, and the aptly named Carbon among dozen others. Digital-only banks have a lot going for them: there’s no need to spend one moment to visit any brick-and-mortar bank, no lines to test your patience, and no agonizing paperwork to deal with. And they’re growing in numbers and revenue all over the world (Global Market Insights, 2019). Also, you can reset pins at the comfort of your home, snap-a-pic bill payment, access convenient expense management tools and quick balance review features, and get real-time analytics when you use digital-only banks. Don’t rush to register into any of these fintech disruptors, however. Consider that like other businesses, they have their own drawbacks: they’re bound to be prime targets of the financial fraudsters lurking all over the internet. In an age when financial fraud is the leading internet crime worldwide, this should weigh heavily on your decision. Digital-only banks might be superbly cheaper and more convenient but what happens to customers when they ran into problems and can’t seem to settle everything online? In traditional banking, customers can at least force themselves to get out of their homes and storm the nearest bank branch to settle matters. Here the solution is in partnership with traditional banks, where customers can shift to traditional and digital banks at their convenience. How firmly digital-only banks fix themselves on the financial market will decide if they’re just a passing fad or something that would become an absolute necessity for generations to come. Considering that the digital transformation still has to peak, digital-only banks have ample time to correct their sails and land squarely on terra firma. #digitalbanking #fintech #Opay #Virtual

The Fintech Frontier: How Digital Wallets Are Changing Payments From bartering to cash to digital options, the way people pay for things has changed substantially over time. Innovation in financial technology, also known as fintech, is transforming the payment industry. #fintech #digital #wallet #payment #industry #technology #innovation

Last week we reviewed the report from https://lnkd.in/ewMRF2eE Here are the key takeaways: 1. Redirecting Investment in Fintech: The majority of the Jury (68%) notes a reallocation of investment from the payments business to other fintech sub-sectors – investors are looking for less risky and more promising areas, the industry's profitability has fallen dramatically in recent years and investments are not worthwhile at this stage. 2. Re-evaluation of Profitability and Growth in Payment Companies: There is a shift in focus to early profitability instead of rapid growth, which may indicate a long-term trend in the industry – amidst the current uncertainty and regulatory vise. 3. Growth of Mobile Payments: The year 2024 could be a watershed year in the proliferation of instant mobile payments. This is due to the increasing share of A2A (Account to Account) systems and mobile money (wallet apps) when compared to traditional cards. 4. International and Home Payment Dynamics: Emerging markets – where there is less regulatory influence – have seen strong adoption of mobile payment methods. In developed markets – by contrast – card-based systems dominate. Presumably, this pattern will continue in the near future without much change. 5. Regulators' influence on the Market: The digitalization of payment systems is also perceived as a consequence of the heavy reliance on large private companies. Accordingly, regulators are faced with the question of supporting local and regional payment networks – in the context of maintaining sovereignty, innovation, financial inclusion and competition. We expect average prices for payment services to go up this year. Markets like Russia, Mexico, Brazil, India are passing or have passed the bottom – companies need to make money, regulators and financial watchdogs are taking a closer look, driving costs up and driving teams out of the market. Keep in mind that price incentives are followed by innovation 💫 Join our channels in Telegram and be up to date on industry trends, payment offers and requests: https://lnkd.in/e5suExKg (RU) @payments_highrisk https://lnkd.in/ei8SpXCj (ENG) @payments_highrisk_eng https://lnkd.in/ec4HFEYM (ESP) @payments_highrisk_esp https://lnkd.in/eSkEUkzp (PT) @payments_highrisk_pt
