Mobile payments (payments for transactions made on a mobile device) are a key area of focus for airlines, with a mobile payments acceptance increase of 25%, a recent study has revealed.

According to a whitepaper entitled ‘Alternative Payment and Distribution Landscape: Airlines and Alternatives – The Facts’ launched by WorldPay, global provider of payment and risk services, 57% of airlines said mobile has the greatest potential to drive revenue over the next two years, equal to credit cards (57%). The acceptance of mobile payments has already grown to 25% in 2013, an increase from 10% in 2012.
