Here's a rundown of the popular emerging payment technologies:
1. Mobile wallets: Very few of us haven't actually used a digital wallet - PayPal anyone? A digital wallet holds money in digital form in your account and allows you to pay for things you buy online. The primary benefit of a digital wallet is the security it offers users. No payments are released till the goods are delivered. Since you don't give your credit card number to the merchant, there's no chance of fraudulent transactions either.
