A Model For The Effective Utilisation Of Mobile Payment Systems In Zimbabwe’s Retail Sector

Abstract

This model was developed with close reference to the model used by Japan in their

implementation of Mobile Suica a mobile wallet system which has served their transport woes

since 2001 .The findings from this research showed that the previously proposed model for the

adoption and acceptance of mobile technology, the TAM and the UTAUT can fully apply to the

Zimbabwean economy with the additional of three more cons tructs which are political influence,

economic influence and interoperability of MNOs. In this research, the researcher recommended

that in order t o increase the utilisation of mobile money in the retail sector, more retailers must

register as merchants so that consumers can use the m payment facility. The MNOs should also

reduce their tariffs so that it becomes cheaper and convenient for the consumer to make

payments through a mobile money system. Fu rther studies should focus on the utilisation of

mobile m oney in other facets of the retail sector to include fast food outlets, hardware shops and

fashion shops.
