CHAPTER - 1
INTRODUCTION
1.INTRODUCTION
pg. 6
Humans have relied on some type of payment system to obtain the commodities
or services we wanted or needed throughout history. Humans began to employ
animals, grain, shells, metal coins, pieces of white deerskin, the wampum, gold,
the gold-backed dollar, charge cards, credit cards, the US currency, and, most
recently, computerised payments, starting with the bartering system.
We prefer payments that are convenient and transactional, if there has been one
consistent pattern in the evolution of payments. With the introduction of the
charge card in the early twentieth century, these preferences began to take
shape.
The invention of the computer in the 1960s, followed by the launch of the
World Wide Web (www) in 1989, ushered in a revolution in the electronic
payment system. With the advancement of electronic payment systems, the
payment procedure was reduced to just a few easy steps that could be completed
at a distance from the bank.
Western Union introduced the electronic fund transfer (EFT) in 1871, which
ushered in the era of electronic payments. Since then, the idea of transmitting
money to pay for goods and services without having to be physically present at
the point-of-sale has captivated people. The expansion of electronic payments
has been aided by technological advancements. Making a purchase nowadays is
as simple as pressing a button on your smartphone. It has taken a lot of effort to
streamline payment processes.
Payments underwent a slow but steady transition from the 1870s until the late
1960s. The Federal Reserve of America began using the telegraph to transfer
money in the 1910s. Diner's Club International became the first independent
credit card corporation in the 1950s, closely followed by American Express.
The first plastic card for electronic payments was offered to the globe by
American Express in 1959.

Mobile payments allow us to perform transactions for goods and services with a
mobile device, such as mobile phones, smartphones, etc. These wireless
communication technologies can be useful to us in a variety of ways like
payments, ticketing and paying fees and fares electronically. Mobile wallet is
one of the mobile payment instruments available that can be used for various
financial transactions. Mobile payment services bring a range of technology
innovations and provide multiple offers to users for greater convenience (Price
and Pilorge, 2009). In emerging economies, mobile applications provide a
platform to target larger population having no bank account but having a mobile
phone.
In today's world, everything is becoming digital, and one of the best examples is
how numerous countries throughout the world are working toward becoming a
cashless society. A cashless society is one that does not use currency for any of
its transactions and instead conducts all of them digitally. Various countries
around the world do more than half of their transactions using cashless
techniques.
1994: Although it is debatable, some claim that the first online purchase,
a Pizza Hut pepperoni and mushroom pizza, occurred in this year.
1999: Mobile phones can now be used to purchase movie tickets, thanks
to Ericsson and Telnor Mobil.

In 2003, 95 million cell phone users around the world made a purchase
using their handset.
The iPhone and the Droid operating systems are both released in 2007.
Apple Pay debuts in 2014, followed by Android and Samsung Pay a year
later.
By 2020, 90% of smartphone users will have used their phones to make
a payment. It is predicted that mobile payment sales would reach $60
billion by 2017.
In May 2011, the total number of subscriptions added on a monthly basis was
13.35 million. The urban segment accounted for 7.33 million, while the rural
segment accounted for 6.02 million. On a monthly basis, the subscriber growth
rate is 55% for urban segments and 45% for rural segments. [8] Given this
context, it is possible to consider the mobile phone as an economically viable
instrument to enable inclusive access to financial services.
pg. 9
Mobile Wallet
A mobile wallet is a device that allows you to carry cash in a digital form. You
can use your mobile device to attach your credit card or debit card information
to a mobile wallet application, or you can transfer money to a mobile wallet
online. You can make purchases using your smartphone, tablet, or smart watch
instead of a conventional plastic card.
To load money into a digital wallet, an individual's account must be linked to it.
E-wallets are available from most banks and certain private companies. Paytm,
Freecharge, Mobikwik, Oxigen, mRuppee, Airtel Money, Jio Money, SBI
Buddy, itz Cash, Citrus Pay, Vodafone M-Pesa, Axis Bank Lime, ICICI
Pockets, Speed Pay, and so on are just a few examples.
It also resulted in a period until around 2011 when the sector was "up for
grabs," Jones adds, because there was uncertainty about how early mobile
wallets would send payment data. But the inquiries didn't stop there. "In the
industry, there was a lot of back and forth over what a mobile wallet was, how
many wallets you needed, how many wallets there would be, and would they all
be on your phone at the same time," he says.
pg. 10
Expect to see payment platforms constantly altering to meet the needs of
consumers as their needs continue to evolve at a rapid pace. Cryptocurrency
will most certainly be the next evolution in the transactional payments arena, in
addition to the growth of digital wallets.
Mobile wallets are on their way to becoming as popular as cash payments were
in the past. Solutions like UBU's Mobile Wallet, which allows customers to
fund their wallets via card or EFT and use them to shop at thousands of vendors
while receiving cashback rewards directly to their wallets, are just as
groundbreaking, allowing us to carve out our own place in the digital payments
history.
With their one-tap feature and speedy processing all in one go, mobile wallets
have made our lives much easier. Mobile wallets are intended to provide a safe
and integrated flow of transactions that is simple to use. A mobile wallet uses a
bank account and credit/debit card information to process payments quickly and
securely while keeping the user's personal information safe.
When compared to other physical wallets, these wallets help reduce payment
processing time, fraud, and cost.
pg. 11
Prior to demonetization, cash transactions accounted for about 95% of all
transactions, 85% of people were still paid in cash, and nearly 70% of shoppers
chose 'Cash on Delivery' as their preferred means of payment. According to
some projections, the Indian mobile wallet market would rise by 150 percent
next year, with $4.4 billion in transactions.
Digital payments
There is no need for cash, credit or debit cards, or checks with digital payment
systems. Everything goes via a processing mechanism on devices like mobile
phones and desktops when you use digital payment apps.
pg. 12
Since Demonetization in November 2016, India's digital payment sector has
undergone unanticipated development. In India, digital wallet firms have grown
by 271 percent to a total value of US$2.8 billion, or Rs 191 crores. According to
a Google-BCG report, the digital payment industry in India is expected to
increase by $500 billion by 2020.
The Indian government is also promoting digital payment apps like Aadhaar
Payment, UPI, and Bharat Interface for Money (BHIM), as well as private
sector apps like Paytm, Mobikwik, and Freecharge. These new apps make it
easier to move money across different sections of the country. India's digital
payments business is rapidly expanding, making it a particularly appealing
platform for global investors.

3.1 INTODUCTION
The speed with which mobile digital payments have evolved is unprecedented
in the history of payment systems. The computerization of banking systems, the
emergence of the internet in the late 1980s, and the widespread usage of mobile
phones are all important catalysts in these unprecedented shifts. The system
thrived because of its ease of use, rapidity of operation, and secure nature of
transactions. People expect their transactions to be faster and safer as time goes
on, and systems are always evolving to meet this demand. Many internet
businesses, banks, start-ups, and even web browser vendors like Google have
developed apps for digital transactions over the last decade. The majority of
these transactions are free.
Payment systems have made the act of purchasing and transferring money
incredibly simple for internet business giants like Amazon. It's a way for
Google, the internet search engine firm, to keep their brand name alive. Since
Google has become a household name, its customer base has grown in a
geometric trend. In India, mobile payment systems such as Paytm and Phonepe
were introduced and have grown in popularity over the last decade. Almost any
transaction, such as cash payment on purchase, bill payment, cash transfer, or
paying for train or movie tickets, may now be completed via a digital system.
The competition in this area is severe and cutthroat, making it tough for Indian
start-ups to survive and earn a profit. This study should perhaps provide some
insight on the use of e-payment systems in Kerala, as well as determine
customer satisfaction with cashless payment methods.
pg. 14
3.2 Top 10 Digital Payment Systems in India in 2021
Thanks to Covid 19, as buying habits change, mobile and digital wallets in India
have developed as well. Mobile wallets and digital payment apps have
surpassed credit card usage and are gradually replacing traditional payment
methods, thanks to UPI making payments simple.
15
Open, semi-open, semi-closed, and closed mobile wallets are available in India,
depending on the sort of usage and payments that are made.
Wallets are rapidly expanding in popularity since they aid in transaction speed,
particularly for e-commerce businesses, and all e-commerce platforms have
connected with such mobile wallets. It has become much easier since the
introduction of UPI, as the transfer is made directly from the bank account
rather than from a wallet. Here are some of India's top 10 digital wallet and
online payment apps, as well as what they have to offer their users. Google Pay
is the best option, as it is also the most popular digital wallet and UPI payment
app right now.
pg. 15
1.PayTM
Paytm was launched in August 2010 in Noida, Delhi NCR, with an initial
investment of US$2 million by its founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma. It began as a
prepaid mobile and DTH recharge platform, but in 2013 it expanded to include
data cards, postpaid mobile, and landline bill payments. Sapphire Ventures
(formerly SAP Ventures) invested $10 million in One97 Communications Ltd
in October 2011. In January 2014, the business released the Paytm Wallet,
which was adopted as a payment option by the Indian Railways and Uber.
With online bargains and bus ticketing, it forayed into e-commerce. Education
fees, metro recharges, energy, gas, and water bill payments were included in
2015. [12] The number of Paytm users increased from 1.18 million in August
2014 to 10.4 million in August 2015. Prior to the introduction of UPI, it was
India's most popular digital wallet.
This e-wallet app can be used to pay bills, transfer money, and get services
from merchants in the travel, entertainment, and retail industries, in addition to
conducting e-commerce transactions. They also accept payments via UPI.
pg. 16
2.Yono by SBI
The State Bank of India created a mobile wallet application that allows users to
send money to other users and bank accounts, pay bills, recharge, book movies,
hotels, shopping, and travel. Its semi-closed prepaid wallet is available to non-
SBI customers and offers services in 13 languages. Customers can also use this
app to create due date reminders, make money transfers, and receive a mini-
statement for their transactions.
To make a cash withdrawal, the YONO user only needs to log in to the platform
and use the YONO Cash feature to generate a reference number and a dynamic
PIN. The customer can then use it to complete the transaction and
withdraw/obtain cash from any of the available channels, such as an ATM, a
POS terminal, or a CSP.
pg. 17
3.Google Pay(formerly know as Tez)
Google Pay (previously Android Pay) is a digital wallet platform and online
payment system developed by Google to support in-app, online, and in-person
contactless purchases on mobile devices, allowing users to make payments
using their Android phones, tablets, or watches. An iOS smartphone can also be
used in the United States and India, however with limited capability.
pg. 18
Despite being a late entrance, they have quickly expanded up their user base as
part of the Google ecosystem. It is currently India's most popular digital wallet
and one of the most popular online payment apps. We may use Google Pay to
send money to pals, pay bills and shop online, and recharge our phones, all via
UPI and directly from our bank accounts. Because Google Pay uses an existing
bank account, your funds are safe with the bank.
pg. 19
PhonePe is a financial technology and digital payments startup based in
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. Sameer Nigam, Rahul Chari, and Burzin Engineer
founded PhonePe in December 2015. In August 2016, the PhonePe app, which
is based on the Unified Payments Interface (UPI), went live. It is owned by
Flipkart, a Walmart affiliate. In India, the PhonePe app is accessible in 11
languages.
PhonePe allows users to send and receive money, as well as recharge mobile
phones, DTH, and data cards, pay bills, invest in tax-saving funds, liquid funds,
buy insurance, mutual funds, gold, and silver.
In addition, PhonePe's Switch platform allows users to book Ola rides, pay for
Redbus tickets, and book flights and hotels on Goibibo.
Over 2.5 crore merchants accept PhonePe as a payment method. Across 15,700
towns and villages, there are physical and internet merchant establishments. In
June 2018, the app reached a milestone of ten million users, as well as 500
million transactions in December 2019. It has around 35 million registered users
and over 15 million monthly active users.
The Reserve Bank of India has granted PhonePe permission to issue and operate
a semi-closed prepaid payment system, with Authorisation Number: 75/2014
dated August 22, 2014.

and 55 million customers using its service. Consumer payments, fintech, and
payment gateway are among the company's three business sectors, which
employ approximately 325 individuals.
From April, Mobikiwik's e-wallet services were suspended from all major
crypto exchanges in India.
pg. 23
7. ICICI Pocket
Pockets by ICICI is a digital bank that provides its customers with a mobile
wallet. It allows you to fund your mobile wallet and pay for transactions using
any bank account in India. Pockets allows users to pay money, recharge their
phones, purchase tickets, give gifts, and divide expenses with friends. This
wallet employs a virtual VISA card to allow users to transact on any website or
mobile application in India while also offering unique deals and packages from
linked banks.
pg. 24
8. Dhani
The Dhani App, which is part of the Indiabulls group, provides a variety of
functions. It can be used as a conventional e-wallet or in conjunction with the
Dhani SuperSaver Card. Customers can also participate in a reward and loyalty
programme through which they can play games and gain cash to pay for
cellphone recharges, EMI payments, insurance, and new Dhani items. This can
be used in conjunction with the Dhani Super Saver Rupay (physical and virtual
card), which guarantees 5% cashback on all purchases made with the card and
is entirely free.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
pg. 30
2.Review of literature.
Payment systems have changed dramatically during the 1990s. The rapid
expansion in the use of debit and credit cards, as well as the computerization of
banking operations and the emergence of the World Wide Web, have all
contributed to these changes (www). These modifications have had a significant
impact on digital cash transactions. Because digital transactions are simple,
inexpensive, quick, and safe, an increasing number of people throughout the
world are opting for cashless payment methods. There is less cash in
circulation, which is less of a burden on the economy for central banks and
governments.
The use of smart phones, which may be carried as a personal device, has
accelerated the growth of the digital economy. Online shopping has exploded in
popularity over the last decade, and numerous online businesses have sprung up
as a result. Companies have developed their own 'apps' for cashless purchases.
Since the introduction of liberalisation in 1991, India's economy has been
flourishing, and the concept of digital transactions has been a welcome shift.
With the advent of RTGS, NEFT, and the Aadhar-enabled BHIM app, the
Reserve Bank of India served as a facilitator in bringing these improvements to
banking operations. India's internet economy is expected to be worth roughly
US $ 250 billion by 2020.
Indian-based digital payment systems like as Paytm and Phonepe have been
more popular in India over the previous decade. In India, Amazon Pay was
launched in 2017. Although Google Pay debuted in the latter half of the
pg. 31
previous decade, it quickly became a hit. There are limited studies on the use of
cashless payment methods in India. Every year, several new methods and
variants of current payment systems are released, indicating that digital
payments are still in their infancy.
pg. 32
Slozko & Pello, 2015
They attempted to explore the elements that influence internet banking adoption
in their research paper titled "A Study on Factors Influencing Consumer
Adoption of Internet Banking in India." The perceived dependability, perceived
simplicity of use, and perceived utility of internet banking are all factors that
impact its utilisation. Experts can emphasise the benefits of internet banking
services adoption, and consumer awareness may be improved to attract
consumers' attention to internet banking services.

were all underlined in the paper. In India, there is a significant risk of a digital
divide emerging as the poor are shut out of the internet and hence the financial
system.
declares "It's vital for banks to examine new digital channels as part of an
integrated strategy and progress from first to second generation digital
banking," Vinnai says. "It's not easy to reengineer procedures to focus on the
consumer, but banks must embrace digital banking to stay competitive and
relevant."
The article entitled “The Study of Electronic Payment Systems”. This study
aims to identify the issues and challenges of electronic payment system and
offer some solutions to improve the e-payment quality. The successful
implementation of electronic payment system depends on how the security and
privacy dimensions perceived by consumers as well as sellers are popularly
managed in turn would improve the market confidence in the system.

improving the e-payment system. The electronic payment system not only
allows you to pay for things online, but it also allows you to pay for things
There are more opportunities, but there are also many threats. The study
discovered that mobile phones have a wide reach.
Digital payments are also being expanded to remote locations via network,
Internet, and energy. The quantity of digital payments will undoubtedly rise.

society." E-wallets, mobile wallets, UPI apps, AEPS, USSD system, and
debit/credit cards for payments were among the ways of cashless transactions
evaluated by the researcher. This study also identified a number of benefits of
using cashless payment methods, including convenience, tracking expenditures,
access to various discounts, reduced risk, and the ability to pay small amounts.
Overspending increases, it is difficult for those who are not acclimated to such
technology, losing phone can be an issue, and the cost of going cashless is
higher, according to this research paper. The researcher concluded that digital
transactions can improve transaction efficiency, openness, and accountability,
and that they will benefit both merchants and consumers as they become more
comfortable with using online payment methods.
pg. 36
2.2 Conceptual review
According to the Reserve Bank of India, there are currently over two lakh
ATMs in India, operated by 46 banks. In 1988, computerization was introduced
to the Indian banking industry, followed by internet banking in the 1990s.
Licences for the establishment of new generation private banks were awarded
following Dr Manmohan Singh's ground-breaking 'Liberalisation of Indian
Economy' in 1991. HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, and Kotak Mahindra
Bank were among them. These Newgen banks are currently at the forefront of
India's banking industry's digital transformation. Online payment methods such
as Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) and National Electronic Funds Transfer
(NEFT) became popular in the 2000s.
While NEFT and other types of online payment required the use of a computer
and frequently resulted in lengthy transaction delays, the new wave of e-
payments ushered in by digital wallets has made money transfers much easier
and faster. E-wallets such as PayU, Paytm, Google Pay, and MobiKwik are
pg. 37
used by millions of people for personal and commercial financial transactions
since the internet and smartphones have become essentially ubiquitous.
With the Unified Payments Interface (UPI)system and the BHIM App-an
Aadhaar-based mobile wallet that can be used to make digital payments straight
from bank accounts, the government is also pushing its "cashless economy"
policy. The success of the UPI plan in transferring money quickly via digital
means is unprecedented. The 2014 demonetisation move resulted in a
significant increase of cashless transactions. Mobile wallet transactions
increased by 114 percent in November and December 2016, while point of sale
(PoS) transactions increased by 88 percent and mobile banking transactions
increased by 30 percent. Between November 2016 and May 2017, India's total
digital transactions increased by 23%.
Cash, however, remains the most widely utilised medium for financial
transactions in a country where the economy was 90% cash-based before to
demonetisation. According to RBI data, ATM withdrawals totaled Rs 2171
billion in April 2017, while UPI transactions totaled Rs 22.41 billion, implying
that UPI only replaced cash by 1%. Unlike digital payments, which require a
pg. 38
constant internet connection and acceptance from both the buyer and the seller,
cash is simple, quick, and always available for offline transactions. As a result,
it is currently the preferred method of payment among Indians. This is unlikely
to change until the country's digital infrastructure improves to the point that
every Indian, regardless of where they live, can conduct digital transactions as
readily as they can pay with cash. The future of digital payments lies in
significantly simplifying and securing the user experience while growing
adoption through grass-roots socio-economic developments. Mobile wallets are
useful, but they still need the user to take out his or her smartphone and take
some action, which is no different than bringing out a credit card for purchase.
Secure identification and payments (by face detection, speech, and sound) are
the next simplifications, which have the potential to further disrupt and
exponentially grow the digital payments tsunami. Given that every tech
company in the globe is vying to astonish their consumers (or catch new ones)
with a better payment process, we are still a long way from reaching a moment
of stasis for digital payments innovation. We're all set to make the huge switch
from an action-driven to an intention-driven payment process.
For the older generation, the word "bank" conjures up images of check books,
files, tellers, and documents, as well as a lot of crunching bankers in 8 cubicles.
If you try to explain this to a millennial banking customer, he might not get it.
Banks have undergone a major transformation in recent years, becoming more
viable, accessible, and technologically advanced. Internet banking, mobile
banking, SMS banking, e-wallets, and other innovations have transformed
banking.

HYPOTHESIS OF THE STUDY
There are two kinds of hypotheses: null hypotheses and alternate hypotheses.
The null hypothesis asserts that no relationship exists between the variables.
The alternative hypothesis asserts that the variables are related.
1st Hypothesis:
H0: There is no statistically significant link between Amazon Pay and consumer
satisfaction.
H1: There is a strong link between Amazon Pay and customer satisfaction.
pg. 44
TYPES OF STUDY
There are several types of studies for conducting research, and they are as
follows:
Applied Research:- Research can be applied (action) research that aims to find
a solution to an immediate problem that society or any business organisation is
facing. The primary goal of applied research is to find a solution to a specific
problem.
pg. 45
Empirical research:- is based on personal experience or observations. It is
research that is based on data that can be verified by experiment, so it is referred
to as experimental research.
In this type of research, the researcher should collect facts, data, or evidence to
support or refute his hypothesis
Descriptive Research: This type of research includes surveys and various types
of fact-finding inquiries. The main feature of this research is that the researcher
has no control over the various variables of the research and can only report on
what has occurred or is occurring. In social science, business, and finance,
descriptive research is frequently used, and descriptive research is studied by
including various reviews of literature in the research project. The best
advantage of conducting descriptive research is that we can study both the
qualitative and quantitative aspects of the research.
pg. 46
SAMPLE SIZE
The sample size is an important aspect of the entire research because it allows
us to determine the strength of our study, i.e. the respondents. A sufficient
sample size can yield accurate results. The sample size in this study is 80
respondents from Kandivali to Virar, so this is our sample size. Because the
sample size used to study the topic is small, there may be minor inaccuracies in
the data, as stated further in the research.
SAMPLE DESIGN
There are two types of sample designs: probability sampling and non-
probability sampling.
pg. 47
the sample. In terms of probability, the outcome of probability sampling or
random sampling can be guaranteed.
I used probability random sampling to collect responses for this study because a
fixed set of questions were asked to a small group of respondents.
The study's data was gathered from both primary and secondary sources.
The questionnaire was divided into two sections: questions about the
respondents' age, gender, and other personal information, and questions about
the topic.
pg. 48
as well as reports published by various organisations, schools, and
universities.
This method of data collection is used to gain a better understanding of the topic
of our research by collecting articles written by authors who have previously
researched the topic that we have chosen.
Secondary data was collected in this study through various websites and online
journals, which aided in the completion of the review of literature. Secondary
data sources were helpful in better understanding the research topic.
The sample size was small and limited; the research would have been more
accurate if the sample size had been larger.
The scope of discussion for this research was limited; the research could
have been more in-depth.
