Digital wallets are table stakes for most consumer across five major markets (Brazil, France, Germany, Brazil, the U.K. and the U.S.). In fact, 86% of consumers say they are familiar them. However, some are using them without quite knowing what they are. For example, just 6.5% of Generation Z consumers, for instance, correctly distinguished these wallets from other related apps.

Consumers may not have the correct terminology or know-how to identify digital wallets. When presented with a list of apps, however, they can identify at least one wallet they have used. There is a disconnect between how consumers are using these wallets and their understanding of them. Providers looking to differentiate themselves need to understand how consumers understand these apps to best position their product.

This report examines consumer perceptions and use of these wallets in the last year across five markets. It considers this technology’s future growth potential. It draws on insights from a survey of 12,229 consumers across five markets conducted from Jan. 11 to Feb. 5.
