Payments industry: high growth attracts new market entrants – a challenge for incumbents
– 2 –
Market growth
Global payments growth remains high,
especially in more developing areas
Still high cash usage in some countries
(e.g. AT, DE) creates opportunity for further
growth also in Europe
Top-line growth in payments
remains highly attractive, but
profitability is under pressure
Incumbent players need to
become agile and lean to remain
innovative and competitive
Increasingly strict regulation
European interchange reglation pushing
down profitability
PSD 2
New European Retail Payments Board
Generally high implementation effort
New types of competitors
Paypal in Shops
(see pilots in Germany)
makes POS infrastructure
obsolete
Google and Apple demand
share of profit pool
Fintech players enter into
payments industry with
different business models
and no legacy cost base
New Applications
Contactless and mobile
payments establish new
usage forms (e.g. small
payments)
Big data and analytics
lead to new business
models and revenue
stream opportunities
(loyalty, cross-selling)

Founded 2005 in Sweden
Klarna let’s any retailer put the equivalent
of Amazon’s “buy with one click” button
on its site
When shopping on a site that uses Klarna,
a customer only has to enter an email
address and a ZIP Code to check out.
Klarna then pays the merchant and collects
the funds within 14 days from the customer
Klarna processed 30% of all online
purchases in Sweden in 2014 and crunched
through $9 billion worth of payments
globally
Valued at over US$2 billion, Klarna
currently counts about 55,000 merchants
in 18 European markets
Founded 2006 in the Netherlands
Ayden sees itself as a “true IT company”
and can handle 250 payment methods
and 187 currencies
It’s pitch centers on the idea that retailers
can get a better understanding of their
customers if both online and in-store
purchases run through the same payments
platform
Ayden’s customers include Facebook,
Netflix, Spotify, Airbnb, and Uber
Adyen doubled its transaction volume in
2014 to $50 billion and is valued at over
US$2 billion
Incumbents have two options to remain competitive
– 6 –
Create a separate innovation unit
or idea incubator, either organically
or through acquisitions / partnerships
with Fintech players
These options are
not necessarily
exclusive and can be
followed in parallel
Adapt the existing organization
to become agile, innovative, and
nimble. Cut legacy cost and focus
on where the business is headed
rather than where it’s coming from

Technical Challenges Adaptive Challenges
Solution is known from the start
(predictability)
Focus on technical solutions
(processes)
Solved by experts
(cost and effectiveness)
Solution reveals itself along a process
(flexibility, ambiguity, continuous learning)
Focus on technical solutions as well as
on mindsets and people
Solved by the people involved
(creativity and empowerment)
"Adaptive challenges cannot be met by the application of
routine or technical approaches. Adaptive challenges call for
mobilizing an organization to change its behaviours. Instead of
maintaining norms, leaders have to challenge 'the way we do
business' and help others distinguish immutable values that
must stay from historical practices that must go."
Ron Heifetz
Solving an adaptive challenge requires a shift from a knower to a learner mindset
