Adapting to the Rise of Mobile-First Commerce

March 16, 2025

Posted by Authvia | 3 Minute Read

Why ISVs, Banks, and Payment Companies Must Evolve

In today’s fast-moving digital economy, mobile-first commerce has become the norm for consumers and businesses that fail to adapt risk falling behind. As consumers increasingly rely on mobile devices for shopping, communication, and financial transactions, businesses must embrace innovative solutions that deliver seamless mobile experiences.

For Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), banks, and payment companies, the shift to mobile-first commerce presents both a challenge and an opportunity. By adopting innovative payment solutions like Authvia’s patented conversational commerce platform, businesses can unlock new revenue streams, enhance customer engagement, and reduce payment friction.

The Mobile-First Commerce Revolution

Consumers today expect fast, frictionless digital interactions, especially when it comes to payments. According to recent studies:

  • 72% of consumers prefer mobile payment options when given the choice.
  • 81% of shoppers have abandoned an online purchase due to a complicated checkout experience.
  • Mobile-first experiences have been shown to improve conversion rates by up to 35%.

This shift has created an urgent need for businesses to adapt their payment strategies to align with mobile commerce trends and text-based payments are emerging as a game-changer.
