With a rise in consumers adopting online banking, changes in customer preferences, and digital payment modes, it is crucial to note that digital banking and payments will continue to be the preferred mode of transaction for customers globally. But the question that remains unanswered is, are global banking and digital payments firms prepared for the shift?
Shifting consumer preferences had become apparent in the digital payments space even before the pandemic, and evidently, the pandemic has only amplified the digital shift.
Future of Digital Payments
Let’s understand how the banking and digital payments industry
can adapt to market shifts and analyze what leaders should consider for the
future:
Buy now, pay later solutions
In 2020, global shoppers witnessed an alarming increase in buy
now pay later options during checkout. By offering this capability to entice customers
during the checkout process, banking firms have a tremendous opportunity to
drive customer loyalty. Providing many such digital payment options post-purchase,
during online purchases, and at the point of sale will help entice consumers by
offering value-added services for managing their spend.

Use of AI and analytics for personalization
With data proliferation on the rise, digital payments and mobile
banking firms must consider leveraging innovative technologies to make the most
of the data they possess. Using innovative technologies to analyze how
customers interact, the channels they prefer, and how and when they transact can
help digital payments and mobile banking firms connect with them proactively
through multiple channels.
Adoption of cashless and contactless digital payments
As more consumers begin realizing the need to shift to digital
payments, businesses will witness a rise in transactions through contactless and
cashless modes. Apart from the safety and security perspective, these digital
payments are perceived to be more sanitary because of being an entirely
contactless mode of payment.
Given the rapid shifts in the banking and digital payments
landscape, developing innovative business strategies can be highly challenging,
especially in an age of disruption and evolving competition. To tackle this
challenge, banking and digital payments service providers will need to
understand their roles in the payments value chain and envisage how they will progress
leveraging technological innovation in the future.
