Could digital payments help restore clients\u2019 trust in a company that’s lost it?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a terrible twelve months for Facebook. Accusations of interference in electoral processes<\/a>, evidence of widespread abuses of user privacy<\/a> and ever-increasing scrutiny from politicians and regulators<\/a> seem to have caused irreparable damage to the company\u2019s image and prospects.<\/p>\n

But the unlikely area of digital payments may offer an opportunity for Facebook to move on from its annus horribilis<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Payments could allow the company to move away from its reliance on exploitative, data-driven advertising\u2014and even to re-establish its reputation.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Facebook up to?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Facebook, according to a recent New York Times<\/em> report<\/a>, has a team of more than 50 software engineers working in conditions of secrecy on a new payment \u2018coin\u2019.<\/p>\n

The coin\u2014a virtual form of money likely to be linked to Facebook users\u2019 bank accounts\u2014could, in theory, allow the 2bn-plus users of the firm’s networks to pay each other seamlessly and cheaply.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Facebook coin is huge and has amazing potential\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The exact details of the coin remain under wraps. But the payment facility seems likely to operate across the three major social media services owned by the company: Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram.<\/p>\n

Although it didn\u2019t mention payments when doing so, Facebook said in January<\/a> that it was going to merge the infrastructure behind these three messaging apps.<\/p>\n

The firm has already trialled digital payments in India<\/a>. Any one of the more than 200m Indian WhatsApp users can transfer money seamlessly and instantly from their bank account to the account of any other WhatsApp user in the country.<\/p>\n

To pay someone requires just a couple of swipes on a mobile phone using WhatsApp. The system relies on the Indian government’s digital payments infrastructure (called United Payments Interface or UPI).<\/p>\n

Earlier this month the firm\u2019s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, gave a clearer indication of his plans for the messaging apps he owns<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe the future of communication will increasingly shift to private, encrypted services where people can be confident what they say to each other stays secure,\u201d Zuckerberg said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe plan to build this the way we’ve developed WhatsApp: focus on the most fundamental and private use case\u2014messaging\u2014make it as secure as possible, and then build more ways for people to interact on top of that, including calls, video chats, groups, stories, businesses, payments, commerce<\/strong>, and ultimately a platform for many other kinds of private services.\u201d [New Money Review emphasis<\/em>]\n

\u201cI think Facebook coin is huge and has amazing potential if it\u2019s done correctly,\u201d Dave Birch, a technologist and payments expert, told New Money Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe potential reach and the possibilities for the reduction of friction in payments is massive. Imagine I\u2019m logged into Facebook and I owe you \u00a310 for something. The ability to pay by going into Messenger and typing \u2018pay \u00a310\u2019, instead of coming out and having to log into some banking application, is tremendous.\u201d<\/p>\n

The WeChat challenge<\/strong><\/p>\n

China offers perhaps the best example of why Zuckerberg is thinking this way. The mobile technology available to the country\u2019s 1.4 billion inhabitants has leapfrogged that of the West.<\/p>\n

WeChat offers taxis, food, shopping, dating and payments<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

WeChat, for example, is a Chinese multi-purpose messaging, social media and mobile payment app developed by Tencent, with over 1 billion monthly active users.<\/p>\n

In addition to the offering the familar uses of messenger apps\u2014exchanging texts, photos and videos and communicating in groups\u2014WeChat provides a range of additional functions: for example, taxis, food, shopping, dating and payments.<\/p>\n

According to a research note published by Ross Sandler, internet analyst from Barclays, WeChat derived over half its 2018 revenue from payments, compared to less than 1 percent for Facebook, whose business model is almost entirely dependent on advertising.<\/p>\n

A gulf in payments revenue\u2014Facebook vs. WeChat<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unlikely that Facebook could ever grow its payment revenues to an equivalent share of its business as WeChat has managed, though, says Sandler.<\/p>\n

The Chinese firm has jumped straight to superior technology<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That\u2019s because WeChat has benefited from a different financial infrastructure to that in Western countries, he says.<\/p>\n

In particular, WeChat has managed to avoid a lot of the infrastructure traditionally associated in Western markets with electronic payments, such as payment cards, payment networks, payment terminal and merchant accounts.<\/p>\n

Instead, the Chinese firm has jumped straight to superior technology, such as payment using QR codes.<\/p>\n

And WeChat\u2014together with its competitor app Alipay\u2014has also gained from financial regulations that are relatively lax by Western standards.<\/p>\n

For example, Alipay, says Barclays\u2019 Sandler, has been able to gather huge volumes of client funds by skirting the fixed loan and deposit rate spreads offered by bank competitors.<\/p>\n

Alipay\u2019s parent company, Ant Financial, runs the Yu\u2019e Bao money market fund, which, with $160bn under management, is now the largest in the world. Ant Financial is also the second largest lender in China.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, says Sandler, payments could add as much as $19bn to Facebook\u2019s revenues by 2021 if the new Facebook coin proves successful.<\/p>\n

How would Facebook do it?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A key design choice facing Facebook, is whether its new payments coin is public\u2014anonymised and open to anyone\u2014or privately run, with Facebook keeping track of the identities and transaction histories of all Facebook coin users.<\/p>\n

While a public coin\u2014along the lines of bitcoin or ethereum\u2014might seem to offer the greatest benefits in terms of the future global scaling of the payments network, it might run into opposition from regulators already alarmed by the spread of cryptocurrencies and the resulting potential for tax evasion and money laundering.<\/p>\n

However, a private Facebook coin, with the company recording all transactions on a proprietary network, could present another security vulnerability for Facebook.<\/p>\n

A private coin would also differ little from a traditional payments network. Plus, there’s the small issue of handing over your financial history to a company with extensive knowledge about your behaviour and past form for exploiting it.<\/p>\n

Opinions differ on the likely outcome.<\/p>\n

\u201cFacebook is trying to get away from the privacy scandals\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI think they may try to launch the new Facebook coin on top of the public ethereum network. It\u2019s almost an industry standard if you want to issue a new coin,\u201d Gabriel Wang, an analyst at Aite Group, a consultancy, told New Money Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cFacebook is trying to get away from the privacy scandals,\u201d said Wang. \u201cAnything built on a blockchain preserves privacy while giving you security.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe firm already direct access to people\u2019s bank accounts\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dave Birch believes Facebook may make use of the existing payments regulations and build a private network.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the blockchain part of it is a bit of a red herring,\u201d Birch told New Money Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cFacebook can take advantage of the new regulations in Europe,\u201d said Birch.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe firm already has a Payment Institution licence, meaning they have direct access to people\u2019s bank accounts,\u201d said Birch.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo if I send you \u00a310, Facebook doesn\u2019t even need to hold the money. It can go via an automatic programming interface (API) and instruct the payment from my bank account to your bank account instantly.\u201d<\/p>\n

This mirrors the way payments work across the WhatsApp messenger app in India.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr, under current EU law they could hold pre-paid accounts without doing extensive know-your-customer compliance work as long as they are only holding \u20ac250,\u201d said Birch.<\/p>\n

In a blog<\/a>, Birch imagined how Facebook coin might work.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour Facebook account sprouts an automatic, opt-out, wallet. You can buy coins for this wallet using a debit card and then send them to anyone else with a wallet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWallets that have passed a know-your-customer (KYC) check (let\u2019s put to one side what exactly this might entail) could store up to say 10,000 Facebook coins (or \u2018Zuckbucks\u2019), while \u00a0wallets without KYC would be limited to say $ZUC 150,\u201d Birch wrote.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure goal<\/strong><\/p>\n

If payments are doubly important for Facebook, it\u2019s because helping users pass payments across the social network could have both direct and indirect benefits: generating a new type of business, and fundamentally redrawing the relationship between the platform and its participants.<\/p>\n

\u201cFacebook’s work from 2004-2019 was the preamble to their real business model\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cA payment is a transfer of trust between two parties,\u201d says Shachar Bialick, CEO at Curve, a fintech firm using mobile technology to aggregate payment cards.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s nothing to do with money. Money is just a way leading to that exchange. Currencies are a way of moving trust, and credit is also a way of transferring trust.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the new world, payments are about networks\u2014who\u2019s facilitating the transfers,\u201d says Bialick.<\/p>\n

Thinking on a global scale about money and the monetary infastructure might seem a diversion for Facebook. But perhaps running social media platforms was just a warm-up for the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 20 years we might look at Facebook’s work from 2004-2019 as the preamble to their real business model: becoming the largest non-state currency issuer on earth,\u201d Nic Carter, partner of Castle Island, a venture capital firm, wrote in a tweet.<\/p>\n
