1The next time you’re at Starbucks, you may be surprised to see someone pay with a smartphone. More and more stores, banks, and governments are offering these mobile payment apps, which connect to a user’s bank account. On the other end, who is using these apps, why, and what are the risks?
21Age tells the story of who likes m-wallets, as mobile phone apps are called. 2Many millennials and Generation Zers own smartphones. 3They have grown up with mobile technology; therefore, they are comfortable with it. 4In addition, they enjoy the benefits these apps offer. 5For instance, users of the Starbucks app can earn free food and drinks. 6Finally, this generation is used to fast communication, so it loves the speed of m-wallets. 7Just scan your phone and go.
31These benefits seem great; however, some people don’t agree. 2They like their privacy and really dislike the idea of losing it. 3They worry that the store might share their data, or the m-wallet provider could be hacked. 4Others worry about theft. 5People often misplace their phones, so the money could be stolen. 6And some hate the idea of a dead battery. 7Money may be in the account, but a dead battery means they can’t get to it. 8Mobile payment providers will have to work hard to get these people to change from cash to app.
