The mobile wallet platforms use a token service to ensure transaction security. Each transaction is authorized with a one-time unique dynamic security code. Customers will have access to advanced wallet-based security and authentication systems to approve payments.
Mobile wallets have continued to grow in popularity since first entering the market four years ago. In a 2016 article, Consumer Reports listed the top five reasons to use a mobile wallet:
- They offer increased security.
- Retailers are widely accepting them.
- They can be used for online shopping.
- Loyalty programs can be stored on them.
- They may soon make checkouts faster.
