Why is Fintechless appealing to the Elderly?

Because of trust issues.

Yes, I answered your question in the first line. But you likely want to know more. And if you are smart enough, you’ll start asking yourself why the trust issues with Fintechare making the elderly insecure?

So,I’m here to answer that.

But before we discuss why trust issues led to fewer appeals from the elderly, let’s explain what Fintechis briefly.

What is Fintech?

The answer as simple as its name. Fintech or Financial Tech is exactly what it says. Every piece of virtual programs, techs, tools, instruments,and service used in finances, is labeled as Fintech.

To be precise, Fintech is a computer program or any other technology that helps in the banking and financial sectors.

The Trust Issue

If I tell you that denizens of Generation X were more than twice as enthusiastic about trying a digital payment solution than any of the baby boomers, would you be shocked? Will you roll your brain and eyes so fast and hard that they will depart your skull and jump back to the next closest island?

The latest report published by Canada’s Rate hub.ca has found that this division is quite real and obviously for some standard reasons. That study found out that millennials were the acting leaders when it comes to mobile phones and contact-less payment options.

Also, millennials were the front-&-center in terms of the use of other automated services where 44% were prepared to trust the automated advisors and that is compared to 23% baby boomers.

But even if 44% are ready, the majority, 56% are not ready, which is the biggest surprise of the whole study.  The hesitant millennials indicated the lack of investment in privacy, security and the overall trust because of leading reasons that they are not turning to the automated systems.

But the good news for financial institutes and banks is that this gap between “I do not trust it” and “I am already using this” isn’t very far. About 61% of the responders said that they believe the data they are providing to the financial institutes are “somewhat secure.” But a good number of 22% has expressed that they feel their data is “not secure at secured” or “Inadequately secure.” This indicates that there is still room for more development, but this update is not enough to attract enough new users.

Rethab themselves noted that 86 % of the responders had to do the researching before choosing a financial product. They also added that this 86% might even ask their friends and family and ask for help online from experts before they move on to a new product.

Is it possible to make them believe in data security again? 

Some of them will never go to a new product and it is believed that the 22% who believes their data is compromised or will be compromised, are hard to convince otherwise.

But you shouldn’t be hopeless because if the 22% can be somehow convinced that their data will be safe and there won’t be any breach of privacy, Fintech will get more and more users.

Turn Automation Marketing into Human-like Approach

Google Wallet And Android Are Coming Under Google Play

Google has recently decided to get its act together and unite all its payment methods under one name, Google Pay. Now, instead of having to worry about independent services that dealt with different payments, users are now given everything under one brand to help reduce some of the clutter and headache that comes along with multiple payment platforms. Moreover, you can use Google Pay to not only pay for online shopping, but in the real world too. What’s happening? This rebranding brings together the previous Google Wallet and Android Pay systems used on most of Google’s platforms, especially Google Play. This helps ease confusion and prevents the two Google sub-brands from competing. There have been times in the past where Google Wallet was a direct competitor to Android Pay, thereby harming each other. The rebranding also comes with a refurbished app that adds to the already functional skeleton of the previously known Android Pay app. The ease of access to its services h...
