Scope
- The growing number of digital-only banks is likely to further accelerate the shift towards electronic payments. In July 2018, Citizens Bank launched its digital-only bank Citizens Access, allowing customers to open new accounts in less than five minutes. Banking transactions can be done either on a mobile device or a computer. Similarly, in June 2018 JPMorgan Chase launched its mobile-only bank, Finn. To attract new customers, Finn is offering $100 to individual s who open an account and complete 10 specified transactions within 60 days, including making a P2P payment, paying a bill, and making debit card purchases. Foreign banks are also beginning to make inroads into the US market. Germany-based mobile-only bank N26 is likely to launch its operations in the US by the end of 2018. The bank will ?initially ?offer ?a ?checking ?account, ?a Mastercard debit card, money transfers, ?cash ?withdrawals, ?and ??a ?customer reward ?program.
- With the rise in economic activities in the US, the Federal Reserve raised its primary interest rate from 1.75% in March 2018 to 2.0% in June 2018. This move has resulted in major retail banks raising the interest rates they charge customers, including credit card interest rates. Several banks in the US including Wells Fargo, Citibank, Bank of America, PNC Bank, JPMorgan Chase, US Bancorp, and Citizens Financial have reacted by raising their prime interest rates from 4.75% to 5%, which in turn makes borrowing more expensive for consumers, thereby affecting the consumer credit market.
- Contactless payments are being introduced to New York City's transit system. According to New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), as of 2019 commuters will be able to make payments using Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, or contactless cards. To facilitate contactless payments, MTA plans to install new readers in 500 subway turnstiles and on 6,000 buses in late 2018. It plans to upgrade the rest of the buses and subway stations by 2020. The existing MetroCard will be gradually phased out.
