Due to the deep development of financial Internetization, third-party payment has gradually surpassed the traditional bank payment and become the mainstream means of market transactions. Recently, the media broke the news that DDT will wholly acquire the third-party payment platform one nine payment. The scene giants such as DDT, Vipshop, and New America have joined the game of third-party payment license. It can be said that who grasps the future of third-party payment, who will occupy the Internet financial high ground.

What is the significance of exploring the future of third-party payment?

In the past five years, China's Internet consumer finance market transaction scale has shown blowout growth. Although the chain growth rate in the past two years has declined, but as the size and growth rate of China's consumer credit market have shown a trend of growth over the years. And TrendForce predicts that the global mobile payment market will reach $780 billion by the end of FY17, up 25.8% from FY16. There is still room for the development of Internet finance, especially third-party payment, in the future. At the same time, the cashless society will also turn from ideal to reality in the next 5 to 10 years.

Third-party payment has developed to meet the needs of various industries through different means of payment. As of now, the mainstream payment products of third-party payment are: net banking payment, mobile payment, digital TV payment, fixed-line payment, ATM payment, NFC near-field payment, code-sweeping payment, point card payment, prepaid card payment, and city payment services. With the popularization of artificial intelligence technology, there are now also a variety of payment means such as sonic payment, fingerprint payment and facial recognition payment. The rapid development of cross-border e-commerce has also given rise to cross-border settlement, international credit card acquiring and other cross-border payment methods.

However, the audience of some payment products can only be limited to a specific or a small number of people, such as digital TV payment and fixed-line payment. In order to occupy a place in the future of third-party payments, payment products and services should have a wide audience, a promising industry outlook, and be able to address user pain points. The mobile payment, urban convenience payment services, cross-border payment is to meet the above elements of the three major payment business, at the same time, they also represent the future of third-party payments.

Mobile payment

Ctrip has become synonymous with traveling, Kindle has become synonymous with reading, and WeChat has become synonymous with socializing. Takeout, laundry, car repair ...... anything can be done in a mobile device as long as there is a potential need. Gas stations, convenience stores, and even roadside fruit stalls can support code-sweeping payments, which is what makes mobile devices so scary and what allows the mobile Internet to grow at a rapid pace.

However, there are still many deficiencies in the mobile Internet. According to Avery Consulting data, only 33.9% of Internet users choose to buy online when shopping, and the proportion of booking tickets through the Internet is only 31.5%. This reflects that the degree of awareness and frequency of use of mobile payment among domestic Internet users are still not high. At the same time, the recognition and usage of mobile payment are relatively low because the technologies of near-field payment and code scanning payment are not yet mature. This indicates that mobile payment is still in a growth stage. However, with the wide application of human-computer interaction payment technology, the improvement of infrastructure, and the transformation of Internet users' habits of use, mobile payment will surely usher in a blowout period in the future.

As the dominant third-party payment company in China, Ant Financial Services' Alipay has long been synonymous with mobile payment. With its financial platforms such as Chanting and Balance, coupled with the huge volume of transactions generated by Taobao and Tmall, as well as a series of convenient payment services, shopping and entertainment services, as well as financial services, it is enough to make Alipay sit on the throne of the domestic mobile payment. Recently, the ant gold service one after another to show the "big move". First, Jack Ma announced the launch of a cashless promotion program, and claimed that after five years, China will be brought into a cashless society. Immediately after, Ma Yun in Alibaba's first technology conference, announced the launch of a code-named "NASA" program. In the next 20 years, an independent research and development department will be formed to reserve core technology for the new economy. This shows that the position of ant gold service in the field of mobile payment is difficult to shake for a while.

City Payment Service

City Payment Service includes public **** services such as medical care, traffic control, transportation, public security household administration, immigration, bill payment, education, provident fund and other private services such as private customization. On the surface, it seems to be just an extension of mobile payment. In fact, it is not, behind the city payment service, relying on the powerful mobile Internet plus social media system.

Public **** service as a living consumption scene, the need is a platform that can accommodate a variety of life consumption scene. For example, if citizens want to book passports and apply for Hong Kong and Macau passes, they can do so by simply submitting their information on social platforms; other matters such as booking car inspections, checking vehicle and license violations, checking the authenticity of invoices, and checking life payments can be easily realized through social platforms.

With the improvement of people's living standards, customized and personalized community consumption is gradually emerging. This kind of consumption is not limited by geography and time. The successive establishment and development of different communities will form a viral fission. At present, Luo Lusi, as well as various types of e-commerce community: such as mother and baby community, beauty community, etc., are typical examples of the development of community consumption. The logic behind it is: economic development to a certain stage, when the basic material desire is satisfied, people will turn to a higher level of material desire to enjoy, that is, personalized and customized community culture. We may be difficult to find a commodity that meets everyone's needs, but we can find a commodity that is loved by everyone in the same circle. And this community-based commodity generates consumption.

Whether it's a public **** service or a private service, the backbone is a social tool with strong user stickiness. Users are able to quickly access any service in their own life scenarios through the use of social tools, which is a kind of urban payment service that combines mobile payment and social tools. As of now, only Tencent can fulfill these two requirements. Tencent as China's social tool overlord, QQ and WeChat two social tools formed a solid community foundation, and WeChat Pay, as a mobile payment application second only to Alipay, both WeChat red packets such as products with community attributes, but also public welfare, taxi, ticketing, housekeeping services, life finance, and other products with the attribute of payment, forming a strong payment + social " Moat". This is also Alipay and other competitors can not be expected.

Cross-border payment

Econometrics predicts that the total value of China's exports will rebound steadily in the next two years, and it is expected that the transaction scale of export retail e-commerce in '18 will be more than three times of that in '06. E-commerce will bring new development opportunities to the foreign trade industry while gradually transforming the traditional foreign trade industry.

For enterprises and individuals engaged in e-commerce, if it is to carry out domestic e-commerce business, through the third-party payment platforms of Alipay and Caipaytong, the two giants can basically meet the needs of the transaction and do not have to worry about the handling fee, security and other issues. However, if you are engaged in cross-border e-commerce, the transaction process is much more complex. Payment is only a part of the cross-border e-commerce transaction process, cross-border e-commerce transactions also involves payment, logistics and warehousing, customs clearance and other processes, and different payment platforms, payment methods, the scope of application and other differences are also very large. To the current more widely used PayPal (Paypal), for example, for small transactions, the use of Paypal is very cost-effective, and Paypal's international popularity is also very high, by the European and American users of the trust. However, Paypal itself has many problems. First, Paypal provides only cross-border payment, and customs clearance, logistics and warehousing links still need to be resolved by the merchants themselves. Secondly, many people who use Paypal have experienced that their accounts are easily frozen and that the interests of consumers override the interests of merchants, resulting in a loss of business.

At present, the premise of the third-party payment platform to provide cross-border payment services is to obtain a cross-border RMB payment and settlement business license, or to obtain the pilot qualification of the cross-border foreign exchange settlement business of the foreign exchange bureau. Dinpay, also known as "Dinpay", is one of the few approved third-party payment platforms in China. Aiming at the current pain points of cross-border payment, Dinpay has launched a total solution for cross-border foreign exchange and RMB payment and settlement, cross-border logistics and warehousing, customs and state inspection filing, customs declaration and inspection, international credit card payment and other cross-border payment and collection businesses. By cooperating with famous cross-border logistics, warehousing and transportation enterprises at home and abroad, and realizing filing and docking with customs, bonded warehouses, overseas warehouses and other channels, ZhiPay has built a cross-border closed-loop system integrating warehousing, logistics, customs declaration and payment, solving the cross-border service problems that plague merchants at present.
