Mobile Processing: Charging Our Future

The most important thing to establish is that mobile processing is not a trend.  It is going to become the principal leader of the credit card processing system.  The rise of mobile payment processing is going to evolve, grow and blaze the path to satisfy the attitude of consumer buying habits.  The mobile processing industry has taken a life of it’s own and if a business owner does not embrace this kind of technology, they run the risk of being left behind.

One of the largest concerns with mobile processing is security.  Improving security measures is more critical now as many consumers have become leery of new technology and the risk of identity theft.  As mobile technology continues to rise, the security measures will continue to improve and integrate personal validation methods and technology.  The bottom line is that security will remain a top priority to ensure both the merchant and customers are at peace with the evolution of mobile technology.

It is predicted by 2017, mobile payments will go beyond $90 billion per year, and by 2020, 90% of consumers will be paying using smart technology.  In the business world, we know that consumer demands and needs drive the path of how business is conducted.  With a change of attitude in regards to consumer buying habits, businesses need to give consumers what they want by accepting credit card payment via a mobile device.  It allows the consumer to control the transaction from start to finish.

Mobile processing can be an essential business solution.  In the past, businesses that started out as cash-only operations were missing out on increasing sales by accepting credit and debit cards.  In turn, businesses that fail to adopt mobile processing will hinder the ability to increase sales.  The adoption of mobile processing will also add opportunities for customer engagement as well as the ability to cross-sell and up-sell ton customers.
