1. Research Brief April 2010
Replacing Cash & Checks
with P2P Money Movement
Abstract
This research was designed to understand online
banking consumers’ reactions to two new product
concepts. The first concept is using P2P payment
services offered by a financial institution. Nearly
half of those surveyed (48%) would likely use this
type of P2P solution.
The second concept is using an ePayment Portal —
a service provided by a financial institution which
allows consumers to transfer money, pay bills, send

2. Executive Summary
The next 12 to 24 months promise to be an active period of P2P payment services explora-
tion, pilots and rollouts by nancial institutions. Our recent national research of active
online banking consumers reveals considerable opportunity for P2P payments to replace
check and cash transactions — particularly if P2P is o ered inside online banking and bill
pay applications.
Nearly half (48%) of consumers surveyed expressed interest in using P2P payments offered by their
financial institution. When asked about the scenarios in which they would use P2P, a third (33%) of consumers
said they would likely use it to send money to a child at college. Almost as many (31%) said they would send money to
an individual out of the country. A quarter (25%) would likely use P2P to split the cost of a gift with other people.
Product functionality and marketing messages that support simplicity, payment speed and record
keeping are essential to driving consumer interest. The ability to send money in just a few simple steps
and an assurance that the recipient will quickly receive guaranteed funds are key requirements (82% of consumers
cited both as important). 86% of consumers feel the ability to keep track of their transaction records is important.
Many consumers will react positively to P2P payments that are built in to a suite of online bill
payment and money movement solutions. Nearly half (49%) of consumers expressed interest in the concept of
an ePayment Portal — an online solution that would allow consumers to transfer money, pay bills, send and receive P2P
payments, and view and track the movement of their money. And of those who expressed interest in the Portal, 70%
would likely use the P2P portion of the Portal. In fact, out of eight payment features presented in the Portal concept
test, P2P was the third most popular, behind making bill payments (88%) and making same-day emergency payments
to avoid late fees (75%). The attractiveness of the Portal concept is validated by the fact that 34% of the consumers
who expressed interest stated they would be willing to switch financial institutions in order to obtain the Portal service.
Record keeping, convenience and reporting tools are primary benefits that will encourage ePayment
Portal adoption. 81% of consumers cited access to a complete record and history of payments of all types that run
through the Portal as being important. Other benefits that resonate with the vast majority of consumers include: the
ability to make all payments and transactions from one central online location; not having to write and mail checks
for bill pay or personal (P2P) payments; and reporting tools to help them budget and spend within their means.
The utilization of incentives or rewards will enhance consumer interest in the ePayment Portal. 69% of
consumers would be likely to use the Portal if offered an incentive by the financial institution (compared to 49% without an
incentive). Consumers resoundingly identified cash back awards as the most valuable form of incentive (75% selected this
option).
Integrating P2P payments and ePayment Portal services with mobile banking services and promoting the
services to existing mobile adopters are key. More than all other factors, current utilization of mobile banking services
is the most significant indicator of likelihood to use P2P payments and the Portal. Today’s active mobile banking consumers
are twice as likely to use P2P payments and the Portal as purely computer-based online banking and bill payment consumers.
Unlike a decade ago, when financial institutions made their initial foray into P2P payments,
today there is a significant base of consumers who are comfortable with electronic payments.
40% of the surveyed consumers stated that they have already used a P2P payments service to send money to
another individual at one time or another, and 93% reported awareness of the PayPal brand name. In addition,
while PayPal is currently primarily used for consumer-to-business transactions, they already have 81 million active
accounts worldwide. This represents a ready base of P2P consumers for a financial institution’s additional services.
