Las 109 startups que están revolucionando el sector de los pagos móviles
Este sector ha movido 3.800 millones de dólares de financiación durante 2015.
2015 ha sido un año excepcional para todas aquellas empresas emergentes dedicadas al ámbito de los pagos. Según los datos que maneja la firma de análisis CB Insights, las startups de este negocio habrían obtenido 3.800 millones de dólares de fondos durante el ejercicio.
La consultora, que en su día confeccionó una tabla periódica en la que se incluían tanto las startups como los inversores del segmento de pagos, ha elaborado ahora un gráfico en el que engloba a las 109 compañías privadas más destacadas en esta industria, estableciendo nueve categorías diferentes según dónde y cómo operan.
- Servicios de pago online– En primer lugar están empresas como Stripe o WePay que ayudan a los negocios a mover su procesamiento de pagos online y hacerlos más disponibles, seguros y económicos.
- Automatización y racionalización de la facturación– Zuora y Paymentus, entre otras, son servicios que agilizan la facturación y automatizan los procesos financieros.
- Pagos en los puntos de venta- La nórdica iZettle o Revel permiten pagar directamente en los comercios a través, de lectores de tarjetas, mochilas y otros dispositivos. Estas startups rivalizan con la americana Square, que domina el negocio y acaba de salir a bolsa.
- Servicios de pagos personales– Aquí se incluye a compañías como MobiKwik o Affirm que ofrecen a los consumidores las plataformas de pagos más convenientes. Hay algunos actores en este campo que se dirigen hacia ciertos nichos de mercado.
- Pagos en bitcoins- Hay unos cuantos players importantes que utilizan esta divisa digital para que los pagos sean más rápidos y seguros. En España tenemos empresas como Coinffeine.
- Pagos en ecommerce- Son startups que adaptan sus soluciones a las empresas y tienda que venden online. Klarna es una de ellas. Esta permite contar con crédito instantáneo para realizar compras en línea sin tener que proporcionar los datos de pago. Este reduce la fricción del proceso.
- Pagos con tarjetas conectadas- Firmas como Coin y Stratos están apostando por esta vía.
- Servicios de envío de dinero- TransferWise o Remitly dan soluciones digitales para el envío de dinero de un país a otro de forma rápida y barata.
