The cell phone has already reinvented the gaming market, re-worked the music industry, and destroyed both the camera and video markets. Now it is coming for our wallets.

With the US smartphone market continuing its explosive growth, statistics portal Statista is predicting mobile wallet users will soar from last year’s 2.7 million to 48 million in 2016. Which means the War of the Wallets will be played out across an economic battlefield worth many billions of dollars.

Research and advisory firm Aite Group predicts the volume of all types of mobile payments will top $200 billion by 2015, up from $16 billion in 2010.

Of course, it’s never that simple, and the road to widespread implementation is paved with serious hurdles.

Obstacles that remain to be overcome include concerns around electronic infrastructure, security, cyber crime and market fragmentation. Add to this privacy, trust, and persuading consumers to change the payment habits of a lifetime and you’ll see there’s a real minefield out there. And what about customer fear that their phone runs out of battery could also leave them moneyless?

But make no mistake. Those with first mover advantage will profit handsomely from the payments revolution. And that is where Wallet Wars comes in.

Examining the future of Mobile Wallet Profitability from every angle: From integrated solutions to turning your data into significant revenue

Just like today’s physical wallet, the mobile wallet will contain our most important credentials – including identity, affiliation, payment, and personal. It will also be a repository for vouchers, offers, discounts and rewards, and include a record of our purchases and our preferences.

All of which means the winning wallet provider will wield enormous power. Is co-operation key to victory? And if so, who is already taking the advantage by forging important strategic alliances?

INTEGRATION: At the Wallet Wars conference + expo, you’ll have ample time to investigate what it’s really going to take to make a mobile wallet a must-have for your targeted customers. Equally important, you’ll be able to arm yourself with the contacts and allies you need to launch a victorious offensive.

As the presentations and panel sessions unfold, you’ll discover exactly how to create a solution that integrates payments, loyalty, ticketing and identity legitimately and securely.

DATA: Then, of course, there is data – with certain analysts claiming the emphasis on payments is in fact misplaced.

Is it possible that while so many are fighting over the small percentages made from transactions, the real value may lie in data analytics? With the wealth of data you can extract from a mobile purchase – location, time, frequency, just for a start – this is a chance to fully realize the potential of hyper-localised and truly personalized marketing.

And this is why you will get an in-depth briefing on using mobile wallet data to add value to your service – and unlock the profit potential – while avoiding ownership issues and the ever-present threat of litigation.

As it has gained ubiquity across the globe the phone has transformed the market places it has entered. It destroyed the video and camera market, while simultaneously re-inventing the gaming marketing.

However now the mobile is coming for your wallet and you have to disrupt your own market, before someone comes and disrupts it for you!
