In Latin America today there are more than 588 million smartphones and according to Statista this number will continue to grow. *<\/p>\n<p>Digital wallets or mobile payment solutions are gaining traction every day as contactless payment in physical commerce becomes more widespread and payment through apps grows. A The World Bank study indicates that 42% of adults in Latin America use contactless payments in stores, and 11% have recently adopted this payment format. ** More than half of industry leaders believe that mobile payments will be the preferred way for consumers to make everyday payments.<\/p>\n<p>Let us take a closer look at why the way we pay is changing and why people are enthusiastically adopting these electronic payment methods:<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"Capa_1\" data-name=\"Capa 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 92.59 92.59\"><defs><\/p>\n<style>      .cls-1 {        fill: #ef642b;      }      .cls-2 {        font-size: 61.07px;        fill: #fff;        font-family: NexaBold, Nexa Bold;      }    <\/style>\n<p><\/defs><g><circle cx=\"46.3\" cy=\"46.3\" r=\"44.5\"><\/circle><text transform=\"translate(35.03 67.85)\">1<\/text><\/g><\/svg>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tConvenience at a touch\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tOne of the main reasons behind the growth in the use of contactless cards and digital wallets is the convenience they offer.

People have opted to use mobile payment applications, e-wallets, contactless cards, and online banking services.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, this growth will be reinforced by e-commerce platforms and marketplaces, with use cases such as instant and scaled issuance of virtual cards for payment from multiple suppliers and associated merchants.<\/p>\n<p>According to a study conducted by Mastercard and Americas Market Intelligence (AMI), in all Latam countries, a drop in the use of cash for more than half of consumers&#8217; monthly expenses can be observed. Specifically, Argentina reported a 20% decrease, Brazil and Mexico recorded the most drastic reductions (-17%) and in Peru and El Salvador, known to be at an earlier stage of digitization, the reduction was less dramatic, with 8% and 5% respectively. ***<\/p>\n<p>To conclude, the shift in the way we pay, with a significant increase in the use of contactless cards and digital wallets, is driven by a combination of factors ranging from convenience and security to active promotion by businesses and technological innovations. As technology continues to evolve and society increasingly embraces these forms of payment, we are likely to see a future where cash becomes less and less relevant in our daily lives.<\/p>\n<p>* <a href=\"https:\/\/es.statista.com\/temas\/9208\/los-pagos-moviles-en-america-latina\/#editorsPicks\">Los pagos m\u00f3viles en Am\u00e9rica Latina &#8211; Datos estad\u00edsticos<\/a>.
