2. WHAT IS A MOBILE WALLET?
Mobile wallets are essentially digital forms of old-style wallets that someone would
carry in their pocket. While there are many variances, usually they can hold digital
information about credit and debit cards for making payments, store coupons and
loyalty programs, specific information about personal identity and more.
In other words, A mobile wallet is a software application with the following base
functionality:
 It offers secure enrollment of the user (application download, identity check)
and secure provisioning of credentials (e.g., user ID and password for wallet
access).
 It offers the ability for the user to securely provision and store customer-
identity information (e.g., email address), payment information (e.g., credit
card data), and shipping address details. The user can preselect a payment
method within the wallet application to execute commerce transactions (i.e.,
pay merchants online, in-app, or in-store).
 The funding of the wallet payment may come from a debit or credit card,
prepaid card, bank account, e-money account, virtual currency, or any other
store of value.

GOVERNANCE OF WALLETS IN INDIA

13. IMPORTANCE OF WALLETS IN FINANCIAL INCLUSION
The RBI, setting out a goal of financial inclusion and a less-cash economy, has
kept up with developing technology in the financial sector, in order to ensure
that consumers can glean the benefits of these advancements, and the goals it
set out can be achieved.

14. THREAT FOR WALLETS
The Unified Payments Interface (UPI) – a new open source platform
developed by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), is a
channel that powers multiple bank accounts into a single mobile
application (of any bank) of a participating bank, merging several
banking features, seamless fund routing and merchant payments into
one hood and also empower users to perform instant push and pull
transactions easily. Built on the country’s existing IMPS (Immediate
Payment System), where funds can be transferred from one account to
another 24×7, consumers will be able to send and receive money
through smart phones without revealing their bank account details.
Wallet Companies are diversifying their business into new format
banking that is Payment Banks. RBI has issued license for 11
Companies to start with these kind of banking system. Thus big players
changing their business into new system, this is a threat for other
wallet companies who has not still adopted this change

15. CONCLUSION
 Mobile Wallets in India is growing day by day but Payments
Banks & UPI are other payment system which will eat up the
Market Share of wallets and more people will turn into such
system soon.
 Hence these mobile wallets need to bring some changes in
their apps so that it can be used more easily like UPI apps and
should also give more focus on discounts, offers & loyalty
programs in order to attract existing and new customers.
