INTRODUCTION

College of Arts and Commerce , Chuttippara 1


1. INTRODUCTION

Invention of computer in 1960’s and later, introduction of world wide web (www) in 1989
led to revolutionary changes in electronic payment system. As electronic payment systems
evolved, payment process was minimized to just a few simple steps, which can be done at
remote locations away from the bank.

Cash is the de-facto mode of payment across the globe. More than 95% of the transactions in
India are still cash-based. Other modes of payment, specially digital payments, have grown
steadily for the past many years. While Credit and Debit cards are the most popular cashless
modes of payment introduced more than 3 decades ago in India, the adoption is still slow and
steady. There are challenges in adoption due to lack of infrastructure, connectivity and POS
machines. The penetration is low amongst small ticket merchants as well as tier-2,tier-3
cities since banks lack the will to promote POS adoption for small businesses.

With each passing year, a lot of new solutions are added to the e-payment process, which is
stimulating e-commerce growth. Since the first decade of 21st century, global giants like
amazon pay and Payu are in the field. In 2010,Indian entrepreneurs developed Paytm, which
has evolved into various fields of cashless transaction. Though Google Pay came into the
field later, their operations are increasing at breath taking speed. Google had the advantage
of being the largest net browser company and they are a household name all over the world.

Demonetization disrupted the cash economy for a while with a rise in digital payments.
Digital payments growth has been accelerated by 6 years due to demonetization . Since then
, the cash is back , but mobile payments are being used twice as much . Currently, less
than 5 percentage of the transactions are cashless and there has been a strong push by the
government for digital payment by promoting mobile-based payment methods like USSD as
well as Adhar based payments like AEPS and mobile ATMs. There are plenty of cashless
payment options that have grown in last 3 years – like UPI, Net banking , Open banking apps,
USSD , AEPS etc. The driving force in the evolution of the payment system has been the need
to give users the ease of doing it as it directly affects the purchase pattern of a customer.

It is because of this reason that Mobile wallets like Jio pay, Amazon Pay, Google Pay, Yono
SBI have become the forerunners of the digital payment industry. While these wallets are
penetrating into very small businesses and non-tier-1 cities initially with their cash-backs,
they have innovated and provided easy user experience that needs minimum learning by a
user. For example, payment via scanning a QR Code or simply entering merchant’s mobile
number is easy. Sending money to a friend to clear debts is just a click-or-two away. To add
on to this, apart from simplifying payments, the value added services like bill payments,
ticket booking provided by these wallets have made them the preferred payment option of
the savvy Indian consumer.

Demonetization gave big momentum to the growth of e-payment systems in India. But even
now only small percentage of consumers have cashless transactions. E-payment systems are
generally simple to operate, efficient and at the same time secure also.

1.2. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Traditionally, purchase of goods involved transfer of physical cash from the buyer to the
retailer. With the introduction of debit/credit cards, cashless transactions could be done
electronically, at least in many of the supermarkets and shops. But for smaller vendors like
vegetable sellers and for those who do door to door sale of fish, there were logistical issues.
With the evolution of e-payment portals like Google Pay, amazon pay, Paytm cash
transactions could be done with smart phones, by the click of a button and thus the
transactions are simple, cashless and are available for local vendors at the Point Of Sale
(POS).

1.3. SCOPE OF THE STUDY

Study is planned to know what percentage of sample population is using the e-


payment services. Over last two decades, e-payment has tremendously changed the
way we do business. By doing this comparative study, we get the level of satisfaction

 (Javed Anwar, 2017) direct comparison between Google Tez and Pay tm is not easy
because both of them work differently. Google Tez connects to your bank accout using
Indian government Unified Payment Interface(UPI),which is an interface that allows
money to be moved from almost any bank account in India to any other account
immediately and in real-time. When the user installs Paytm,he or she also has to create
a Paytm account. This account then becomes an e-wallet where certain amount of
money(the monthly limit for regular users is Rs 20,000)can be kept.This e-wallet,
once the money is gone, has to be recharged using a debit card, credit or through

Paytm authorised recharge points.

 (Sanchita Dash, 2020) Google Pay has taken a comfortable lead in India’s payments
market over rivals like PhonePe, Amazon Pay,and a one-time market
leader,Paytm.However, for Google,the up and coming Whatsapp Pay may prove to be
the real challenge.Google Pay had 75 million transacting users in May 2020,while
PhonePe had 60 million users and Paytm had 30 million.

 (Rakuten, 2020)According to a survey conducted by Rakuten Insight in India, a large


share of respondents between 16 to 54 years of age stated to have frequently used
some form of e-payment method as of February 2020.Around 30 percent of
respondents between 16 to 34 years of age stated that they used electronic payment
methods everyday, where as only six percent of respondents who were 55 years or
older used e-payment methods daily in India.

THEORETICAL
REVIEW

3. Introduction

Speed of evolution of mobile digital payments is unmatched in the history of payment


system.Important catalysts in this unparalleled changes are the computerisation of
banking system,introduction of internet in late 1980’s and the universal use of mobile
phones.Ease of use,speed of operation and secure nature of transactions made the system
to thrive.As years go by,people want their transactions to be faster and safer and the
systems are evolving all the time.

Over the last decade,many online business companies,banks,start ups and even net
browser company like Google have come up with apps for digital transactions.Most of
these transactions are free of cost.

For online business giant like Amazon,payment system made the process of purchase and
transfer of cash made very easy.For internet search engine company Google,it is a means
of maintaining their brand name.Since the brand Google is a popular household
name,customer base is increasing in geometric progression.

Last decade has also seen the introduction and increasing popularity of mobile payment
systems like Paytm,Phonepe in India.Now almost any transactions like cash payment on
purchase,bill payment,transfer of cash or paying for your train or cinema tickets can be
made through digital system.

Competition in this field is fierce and cut throat and the Indian start up companies will
find it difficult to survive and to make profit.Hopefully,this study will throw some light
on the usage of e-payment systems in Kerala and also will find out the customer
satisfaction with the usage of cashless payment systems.

Suggestions

 Understanding how users perceive current mobile payments and what drives their
satisfaction and dissatisfaction is important for mobile payment
providers ,merchants and consumers

 Knowing what drives users to satisfaction can help mobile payment providers to
develop more successful future applications and improve existing solutions

 Study should be done on larger population representing different age groups and
also people from different socioeconomic categories .

 As the technologies are evolving at a rapid rate, studies should be done at regular
intervals to check the changes in customer satisfaction with changing times.

 Mobile payment systems consists of different categories like money transfer,


online payments , paying in stores and also paying bills

 It is advisable to conduct studies in each category of payment to have more


realistic view on satisfaction/dissatisfaction among the users of these payment
portals

 Research also need to be done on merchants perspective to have different angle of


view on the payment portals.

 Money transactions are essential part of every person`s day to day life .
Government should encourage more local payment portals to start as start up with
new technology and give financial assistance to deserving candidates to thrive and
flourish.

Conclusion

Thus study on customer satisfaction of mobile payment users showed some interesting
findings. As the respondents were mostly in the late teens , 20’s or 30’s they are mostly
technology driven . Around 80% of the study population had a positive view on various
parameters of customer satisfaction .Sources of dissatisfaction are mostly because feeling
of complexity in the system and also because of a feeling that the system is inefficient

As time goes by new technologies will be added and the mobile payment system is bound
to improve As far as the government and central banks are concerned, with the new
technology, there is less requirement for printing of currency and also less currency in the
circulation . As the transactions are easy, secure and speed of money transfer is rapid
