Rise of E-commerce to Provide Lucrative Opportunities for Global Mobile Wallet and Payment Market Growth During Forecast Period

The rise of e-commerce in Europe is closely connected with digital transformation. Presently, European consumers benefit from a wide range of payment options, encompassing digital wallets, payment cards, mobile wallets, and Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solutions. Such a diverse and evolving landscape of payment methods reflects the growing adaptability and convenience in the European market. According to a 2021 survey by Payvision, 44% of European consumers prefer digital wallets, which are among the most favored online payment methods. This method of payment is closely followed by card payments, with a share of 42%. The stats underscore the growing traction toward mobile wallet payments in European countries.

In December 2023, Visa conducted a study across nine European countries to explore the changing landscape of mobile payments along with the associated opportunities. The study revealed that shifts in consumer behaviors, advancements in technologies, the proliferation of wallet providers, and an increase in merchant acceptance contribute significantly to the evolution of mobile wallets. Several studies and surveys support the high penetration of mobile wallets in Europe, with varying usage patterns across specific countries. Moreover, a substantial majority of Europeans (72%) actively utilize mobile wallets, with the Nordic markets (Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland) and Switzerland emerging as leaders in adoption, exhibiting usage rates 10-15% higher than the European average. Additionally, the study indicated that a significant portion of Europeans, i.e., 32%, intend to rely exclusively on mobile wallets by 2023, signaling a potential for a huge inclination toward wallet-based payment methods by ruling out traditional payment methods.
