Americas: mobile payment transactions 2025

Mobile payments in Brazil and Mexico are expected to grow at a faster pace than in the United States or Canada come 2025. Somewhat unsurprising, the transaction volume in the U.S. was much higher than the three other countries the source mentioned from the Americas. Proximity mobile payment adoption compared to other individual countries in the world was relatively high in both the United States and Canada. The compound annual growth (CAGR) between 2020 and 2025, however, was especially high for Brazil, reinforcing a trend that mobile payment use in Latin America is set to increase in the coming years.

Special properties

The source did not provide figures for other Latin American countries - such as Argentina or Colombia; The source excluded P2P wallets or wallets that can only be used on a single website or app."

Supplementary notes

The source explicitly states that "we look (...) only for open wallets, ie those that have the ability to make payments on multiple sites, rather than in reference to an ability to transfer funds between different wallets. Thus we do not focus on transactions conducted via cards stored by a retailer purely for use on that retailer’s website or mobile app."
