Abstract

Mobile payment is a mobile client using cell phones and other electronic products to make electronic money payments. Mobile payment combines the Internet, terminal devices, and financial institutions to form a new payment system. Mobile payment has greatly influenced people's life and made a big change in their lives. The primary goal of this study is to find the factors that influence mobile payment. In this paper, we adopt a quantitative research method, and by calculating the annual growth rate and correlation, we conclude that the number of payment users is significantly correlated with the number of active WeChat users and how many people use smartphones in China. The significance of our research is to find the factors that influence mobile payment and promote the usefulness and convenience of mobile payment in our life.
