Convenience Fuels the Rise of Digital Wallets in North American Online Payments


Dublin, Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "North America Online Payment Methods 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

In a digital age dominated by card-based payment methods, digital wallets are rapidly gaining momentum as the preferred online payment method across North America. According to a recent report, digital wallets, including PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, have secured the fourth position in terms of frequently used online payment methods, with usage occurring at least five times per month. This ranking places digital wallets just behind debit cards, cash, and credit cards, as of September 2022.

Key Findings:

  1. Digital Wallet Popularity: Nearly half of the surveyed respondents in the U.S. reported using at least one e-wallet or mobile payment app for online purchases as of July 2023.
  2. Convenience Matters: More than 25% of the surveyed respondents expressed that the convenience of digital wallets encouraged them to lean towards online purchases, based on data as of April 2023.

While digital wallets are gaining traction, the North American market still heavily relies on credit and debit cards as the most commonly used online payment methods. The well-established network of card providers within the U.S. has led to continued growth in their adoption. These card providers now offer innovative contactless payment alternatives such as Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) and one-tap payments, aligning with evolving consumer expectations for seamless payment options at checkout.

  1. Experimentation with New Payment Methods: Buyers are actively experimenting with new forms of payment methods, including account-to-account app payments and machine-to-machine payments, due to their speed, convenience, and control.
