How do we get mobile adoption higher?
- has to be a willingness to try new technologies
- find the niche need, ex Square built a platform for the smaller retailers, for the hot dog vendor, people who had never really considered mobile payments before
- we need to increase merchant engagement
- we need to find ways to change the shopping experience for consumers
- need to figure out a frictionless way to make mobile payments easier
