Many scholars also agree that there is a significant relationship between mobile payment
methods and gaining competitive advantage to sustain an improved performance. Most also
argue that the mobile payment method of use will be dependent on the location and nature of
need. The handbook by Namada (2018) notes that the concept of organizational learning
must be down-trotted to the local businesses to learn which mobile technology suits their
operations and how this technology can be leveraged to achieve competitive advantage.
The literature and conclusions from the scholars however fail to answer specific
questions that related to leveraging on mobile payment methods to gain competitive
advantage for local based businesses. Most of the studies were focused on businesses
and companies in towns and cities with the area of interest majoring on performance
whether competitively or not. This study will therefore be focused on the factors of
consideration for leveraging on mobile payment methods to gain competitive advantage by
local based businesses.
