Online wallet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An online wallet is a program or web service that allows users to store and control their online shopping information, like logins, passwords, shipping address and credit card details, in one central place.
Generally, the payment process is:
First payment:
- User registers, inputs their phone number, and the provider sends them an SMS with a PIN
- User enters the received PIN, authenticating the number
- User inputs their credit card info or another payment method if necessary (not necessary if the account has already been added) and validates payment
Subsequent payments:
- The user re enters their PIN to authenticate and validates payment
Requesting a PIN is known to lower the success rate (conversion) for payments. These systems can be integrated with directly or can be combined with operator and credit card payments through a unified mobile web payment platform.
