1 Mobile wallets explained

A mobile wallet is an app that stores your credit, debit, or prepaid card information digitally and allows you to make contactless payments at terminals that support near-field communication (NFC) technology. You can also use a mobile wallet to send and receive money from other users, pay bills, buy tickets, or redeem coupons. Some examples of mobile wallets are Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, and PayPal.

Mobile wallets store your payment info securely, letting you pay contactlessly with your phone at NFC terminals. Think Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, PayPal, and more. They even let you send money, pay bills, or snag deals – all on your mobile device. Convenience and security in one!

In my perspective, Mobile Banking Apps offers broader range of financial and banking services. Users are connected directly to bank accounts. Additionally they could offer investment management and financial planning tools. One crucial consideration is always protection of sensitive financial information through various encryptions and authentication mechanisms. where as Mobile Wallets focusses on payments and transactions through digital versions of payment cards. Some organisations have amazing loyalty programs to offer while maintaining digital currency. This also helps in reduced dependencies on traditional banking operations and thus making quick and convenient payment solutions.

Para mí las billeteras móviles son como tu cartera digital para pagos rápidos en tiendas y entre amigos. Son prácticas para pagar sin sacar la tarjeta, o de forma prepago, pero en general suelen limitarse a eso. No entro aquí en temas cripto, ni en si son billeteras “frías” o Cloud, etc, que daría para otro post entero ?? …

Keep it simple: Mobile wallets: Credit Cards, Plane & train tickets, loyalty cards,... any old plastic card could be converted into a digital card and be dynamic in design and use. Mobile Banking apps: bank transactions like transfers, and investments,... linked directly with your bank account.

Las apps de banca móvil son básicamente tu banco en el móvil. Haces casi todo lo que harías en una sucursal: revisar saldos, transferir dinero, pagar recibos, etc Son más completas, pero a veces más complejas de usar, por ejemplo en segmento de personas mayores.

3 How they differ in security

Mobile wallets and mobile banking apps both use encryption and authentication to protect your financial information and transactions. However, mobile wallets have some additional security advantages over mobile banking apps. Mobile wallets do not transmit your actual card number or account number when you make a payment, but instead use a unique token or code that changes with each transaction. This reduces the risk of your card or account being compromised if the merchant or the terminal is hacked. Mobile wallets also require you to verify your identity with a PIN, fingerprint, or facial recognition before you can make a payment, adding another layer of security.

4 How they differ in convenience

Mobile wallets and mobile banking apps both offer convenience and speed when you want to manage your money or pay for something using your smartphone. However, mobile wallets have some additional convenience advantages over mobile banking apps. Mobile wallets allow you to carry multiple cards in one app, without having to carry your physical wallet or switch between apps. Mobile wallets also work with many online and in-app purchases, as well as offline and in-store purchases, giving you more flexibility and options. Mobile wallets also enable you to send and receive money from other users instantly, without having to share your bank account details.

5 How they differ in availability

Mobile wallets and mobile banking apps both depend on the availability of your smartphone and the internet connection. However, mobile wallets have some additional availability advantages over mobile banking apps. Mobile wallets work with any bank or card issuer, as long as they support the mobile wallet platform you are using. You do not need to have an account with a specific bank or credit union to use a mobile wallet. Mobile wallets also work with any terminal that supports NFC technology, which is becoming more widespread and common. You do not need to look for a specific ATM or bank branch to use a mobile wallet.

6 How to choose the best option for you

Mobile wallets and mobile banking apps are both useful and beneficial tools for managing your money and making payments using your smartphone. However, they have different features, functions, and benefits that may suit your needs and preferences better in different situations. The best option for you depends on factors such as your security concerns, your convenience preferences, your availability options, and your spending habits. You may also want to use both mobile wallets and mobile banking apps for different purposes and scenarios, as they can complement each other and enhance your mobile payment experience.

Al final para elegir, piensa en si quieres pagar cosas rápido y de forma sencilla o si necesitas manejar tus finanzas de forma más global. En cualquier caso, siempre verifica que la app que elijas sea de una fuente confiable y tenga buen soporte.

Whenever possible, use a virtual credit card (generated by the bank's app and can only be used once) for transactions in virtual stores, instead of a "real" credit card! &;-D

Mobile wallets primarily focus on enabling users to make transactions through their smartphones conveniently through the stored value. They often integrate with various payment methods like credit/debit cards, loyalty cards, and even cryptocurrency. Mobile banking apps, on the other hand, provide a broader range of banking services, including checking balances, transferring funds between accounts, bill payments, and accessing account statements etc. While mobile wallets are more transaction-oriented, mobile banking apps encompass a wider spectrum of financial activities, often linked directly to users' bank accounts.
