Over the previous decades, the most common payment methods have been cash, cheque or credit cards. The growth of ecommerce has led to credit cards becoming the dominant payment solution, although credit cards have many issues in a digital & interconnected with security and convenience being the most significant.

In addition, credit cards for online purchases can be substantially less convenient as credentials expired and card details need to be stored or remembered.
