What is a digital wallet & how does it work?

Digital wallets can help you pay when you’re shopping online (think: PayPal), transfer money between friends (think: Venmo), or pay with your phone at the gas station (think: Apple Pay). A mobile wallet is a type of digital wallet that’s accessible through an app on a mobile device (usually a phone or wearable).

What can you do with a mobile wallet?

You can use a mobile wallet to “tap to pay” when you’re checking out of a store — a convenient alternative to paying with cash or carrying around a bevy of physical cards. You can also add items like boarding passes and concert tickets to mobile wallets.

What are the most popular mobile wallets?

When it comes to the most popular mobile wallets, industry insiders refer to them as “The Pays”: Apple Pay (for iPhone); Google Pay, previously known as Google Wallet (for Android); and Samsung Pay (for, yep, Samsung). You won’t find many differences between each of the Pays; which one you use will depend on which type of phone you have.

What is an integrated software vendor (ISV)?
