Retail Point of Sale Payment Forecast Report 2014-2019: The Mobile Payment Square-Effect and Prepaid Card Popularity Drive Cash Down by 10%
M2 - Tue May 27, 8:08AM CDT

While the growth of e-commerce has devastated many brick-and-mortar merchants, others have thrived and POS shopping still represents the bulk of domestic retail spend (92%). This report evaluates the actual and forecast changes in the retail POS market, tracking payments mix data from 2012 through the forecast year of 2019 and identifying key drivers of market change. In addition to highlighting domestic in-store retail growth during 2013, this report details Javelin's forecasts for total retail POS payments volume and analyzes share and transaction growth at the POS for credit cards, debit cards, cash, paper checks, prepaid cards, gift cards, and mobile proximity payments. PRIMARY QUESTIONS - What are the major trends for domestic retail POS payment transactions? - How will traditional non-card payment options cash and paper checks fare as card-based payment vehicles continue to grow in popularity? - Will traditional card-based payment options, including credit and debit, maintain current dollar volumes, or will nontraditional options like prepaid and gift cards infringe on their share? - Will mobile proximity payments disrupt the current POS payments ecosystem? - What factors influence consumer adoption and use of various payment options for in-store purchasing? Key Topics Covered: - Overview - Primary Questions - Methodology - Executive Summary - 2014 Signals Major Changes For POS Retail - Payments Mix at the POS - Mobile Transforms In-Store Shopping - Prepaid Cards Are the New Disruptor At the POS - Paper-Based Payments Disappear As Cash and Checks Fall - Credit Cards Return To Power At the POS - Debit Cards Continue Steady Growth - Appendix Companies Mentioned - Abercrombie & Fitch - A?ropostale - Apple - Barnes & Noble - Best Buy - Burger King - Chick-fil-A - Chipotle - Dwolla - Intuit - J.C.
