Mobile Lets Alternative Payments Get Physical

Mobile is disruptive technology that can change the game very quickly for any one of the alternative payment providers.  Alternative payments heretofore have traditionally been restricted to virtual marketplaces and the Internet and can now enter the physical world; a fact that will either propel or obliterate the business model of nearly all alternative payment types.  This session will review the game changing impact of mobile on all forms of alternative payments.  You will learn how all forms of alternative payments can enter the physical world using one of four different mobile phone channels as the launching pad to bridge the gap between virtual world offerings and the point of sale. This session will also profile the processing differences and applications for each of the major mobile payment processing schemes. Review actual deployment experience and how the mobile platform can be used to increase customer self-service and reduce costs and increase low cost forms of electronic payment.

Customer-Centric Loyalty Marketing: The Untapped Value Proposition for Alternative Payments

Credit card issuers are spending billions of dollars annually on loyalty programs and this has driven consumers' usage of payment cards. Even so, the traditional payment mechanisms fail to deliver for both merchants and consumers. In order to drive adoption of alternative payments and maximize their potential to build profitable customer relationships, we must learn to capitalize on the inherent advantages of these payments to build customer-centric customer loyalty marketing initiatives - and we must also avoid repeating the past mistakes of traditional credit and debit card loyalty programs.

In this presentation, we will outline the key components to a customer-centric loyalty strategy, discuss ground-breaking examples of how alternative payments can leapfrog traditional credit and debit card loyalty programs and present a step-by-step process for developing payments-based loyalty strategies that maximize profitable customer relationships.

This session will provide a context for understanding how alternative payment methods impact the incumbent core business of most banks and provide guidance on how to respond.
