Ubamarket research shows growing appetite for m-payments

41% of Brits believe all payments will be done via mobile devices in the future, and that rises to 53% among Millennials. That’s according to Ubamarket’s Retail Trends Report 2018, which surveyed 2,000-plus UK consumers.

This also found that 48% hate using self-scan machines, 32% pick an online or High Street retailer based on how easy it is to pay for items and 20% will consciously avoid shops, restaurants, newsagents, cafés or bars that only accept cash. 20% said in-app payments were their favourite method of paying for items, rising to 34% among 18-34 year olds.
