Underpinned by robust methodology, the new Competitor Leaderboard ranked the top 17 digital wallet platforms across a number of criteria, including the range of payment channels covered, different use cases they support, and future business prospects.
The top five leaders for 2024 are:
- Huawei
- Ericsson
- Comviva
- OpenWay
- Netcetera
Competitor Leaderboard Findings & Recommendations
The report found that the key determining factor in the market leaders’ success is the offering of advanced digital wallet capabilities, such as microloans within emerging markets. The leaders all include mobile financial services modules in their digital wallet platform. For example, Huawei has been working with emerging market telecoms operators to create innovative credit products, such as in Ethiopia. Wallet providers must help their clients to diversify their revenue by fulfilling financial services not commonly accessed through banks in developing markets.
Reward & Loyalty Schemes Important for Encouraging Adoption
The report also highlighted the role of loyalty schemes in encouraging user adoption. By offering schemes such as cashback on purchases via their digital wallet, wallet providers can provide a financial incentive for consumers to adopt their wallet, which is vital in the increasingly competitive digital payments market.
An extract from the new report, Global Digital Wallets Market 2024-2029, is now available as a free download.
Report author Michael Greenwood added, “Loyalty schemes are vital in developed markets, where there is greater competition for each user. Digital wallet providers must utilise users’ transaction data in order to customise rewards to the user, offering a personalised experience.”
