Mobile payments are now as widely accepted as on-line payments among the nation’s top 10 retailers, according to a survey (free registration required) released in February 2012 by First Annapolis Consulting.
All of the nation’s 10 biggest retailers accept both on-line and mobile payments, the survey said. The large majority of these top retailers also accept gift card payments on-line (nine of 10 retailers) and via mobile (seven of 10 retailers).
However, there are still things that most retailers won’t allow via mobile. For example, seven of the 10 retailers allow you to make purchases on-line using alternative payment methods, such as PayPal or Google Checkout, while only one allows that to happen via mobile.
