Retailers and banks have their own mobile payment options. At least one research report from Parks Associates said that shoppers prefer mobile payment apps from retailers, and eMarketer noted that the apps allow merchants to capture valuable data about their users, while tying in loyalty features. Merchants like Walmart, Target and CVS have introduced the digital wallets. Banks that have mobile payment apps include Citibank, Chase and Wells Fargo.
