Background of the Study

Mobile wallets are digital payment solutions that allow consumers to store and use their financial information, such as bank accounts and credit cards, to make payments via mobile devices. With the rise of digital banking and mobile payment solutions, mobile wallets have gained significant traction globally and in Nigeria. GTBank, a leading Nigerian commercial bank, has invested heavily in mobile wallet solutions to provide its customers with a more convenient and secure way to conduct financial transactions. The bank has implemented various marketing strategies to drive the adoption of its mobile wallet services across Nigeria, including Gombe State, a region in the northeastern part of the country with a rapidly growing mobile and internet penetration (Muhammad & Ibrahim, 2024).

Gombe State, known for its growing urban centers and emerging markets, presents a unique setting for studying mobile wallet adoption. GTBank’s marketing strategies, which include offering incentives, discounts, and targeted promotions, aim to encourage Gombe residents to adopt mobile wallets for everyday transactions. However, challenges such as low financial literacy, trust issues, and concerns about security may influence how effectively mobile wallets are adopted in the region (Musa & Aliyu, 2024).

This study will explore the factors influencing mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State, examining the role of GTBank’s marketing strategies in driving user acquisition and the overall success of mobile wallet usage.

Statement of the Problem

Despite the increasing adoption of mobile wallets in Nigeria, the rate of adoption varies significantly across regions, especially in less urbanized areas like Gombe State. GTBank has made substantial efforts to market its mobile wallet services, but there is insufficient research on the effectiveness of these marketing strategies in driving adoption in this particular state. Understanding the barriers and drivers of mobile wallet adoption, as well as the effectiveness of GTBank’s marketing efforts, is crucial for improving the bank’s reach and service offerings in the region.

This study aims to fill this gap by examining how GTBank’s marketing strategies influence mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State, considering both the challenges and opportunities unique to this region.

Objectives of the Study

  1. To evaluate the factors influencing mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State.

  2. To assess the effectiveness of GTBank’s marketing strategies in promoting mobile wallet usage in Gombe State.

  3. To examine the relationship between mobile wallet adoption and consumer behavior in Gombe State.

  1. What are the key factors influencing mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State?

  2. How effective are GTBank’s marketing strategies in promoting mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State?

  3. How does mobile wallet adoption influence consumer behavior in Gombe State?

Research Hypotheses

  1. Mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State is influenced by factors such as trust, security concerns, and financial literacy.

  2. GTBank’s marketing strategies significantly contribute to mobile wallet adoption in Gombe State.

  3. Mobile wallet adoption positively influences consumer behavior, such as increased transaction frequency and customer loyalty, in Gombe State.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

This study will focus on the adoption of GTBank’s mobile wallet services in Gombe State and the marketing strategies employed to promote these services. Limitations include the reliance on self-reported data from consumers, potential bias in respondents' answers, and the challenge of measuring the long-term impact of mobile wallet adoption on consumer behavior.
