The Market Today – Challenges to Achieving Growth Potential
? Some market require Trusted Players to engage – difficult for new players to build brand without massive investment.
? Traditional Merchant Acquiring running on ‘Slow Burn’ – legacy IT infrastructures can’t react to new software approaches.
? Traditional Merchant Acquiring undertaking ‘white labelled 3rd Party’ defensive strategies (Speed v Solution) - Commercial models can be difficult – especially to meet volume growth.
? Confused market place – continually waiting for the next hardware because its going to be cheaper (The Mythical $40 device). Can a compliant/certified, robust and usable device actually ever get to this Price ?
? Lack of bundled solutions with Smart Devices – Operators/MNO’s still not found a workable commercial model but best placed to deliver ‘combined propositions’.

The Growth Markets
mPOS has opened up an opportunity in many emerging markets where previous mobile Chip & Pin solutions (GPRS/3G PED’s) too expensive. Technology Jump to latest Mobile networks.
Aligned very much with EMV Migrations – great opportunity to deliver low cost EMV (Chip & PIN) Solutions without high legacy costs.
Opportunity in emerging markets to link payment and authentication for value add services (Government – Agent Services).
mPOS very much now been seen as the next generation Payment Device. Cannibalising a number of traditional stand alone terminal verticals.
Retail Verticals now emerging as a real opportunity. Major retail markets lacking innovative mPOS hardware solutions to deliver there need to dynamically change the legacy POS environment.
