Readiness to use mobile payments in the UK 2012
This statistic illustrates the score of UK consumers on MasterCard's own Mobile Payment Readiness Index (MPRI). The index covers three varieties of mobile payments: person to person (P2P), mobile e-commerce (m-commerce), and mobile payments at the point of sale (POS), and measures the customers' willingness and readiness, as well as their actual implementation of these three payment methods. In 2012, 16 percent of UK consumers were familiar with mobile payments at the point of sale and 16 percent were willing to try them.
