What will trigger consumer adoption?

M for Mobile surveyed 430+ industry executives on what they thought would drive mass adoption.

There is a distinct lack of consensus with an array of drivers being highlighted as ‘very important’. The inclusion of NFC technology in the iPhone 5 and use by retailers are seen by a signi�cant number of industry executives as the most important.

A pattern has emerged from these results suggesting that adoption by handsets and loca-tions used regularly – such as convenience stores and retailers – will be very important drivers for mass adoption. Much has been made of the impact of the Olympic Games and Google re�ning their mobile wallet, this, according to this snapshot of the industry will not be the key drivers for mass adoption.

Q: How important would the following be in driving mass adoption?
