Micro-payments impact in Manufacturing

On the manufacturing research group I’m engaged we are looking for 3 things:

  1. The unknown knowns – the obvious changes.
  2. Economic patterns we’ve not seen before.
  3. In a hybrid world of old and new, how do we manage the migration?

One of the ideas that came to me is the impact of the micro-payments in consumer environments and how this phenomenon that started in Internet is jumping into the physical world.

Sorry but I only have questions:

  • How much % of the economy is moved on micro-payments?
  • How much micro-payments can increase?
  • How manufacturing industry is being affected by micro-payments?

Related to the manufacturing industry:

  • Are the micro-payments one of these unknown knowns that we do not see?
  • Are micro-payments a Economic patterns that the industry is ignoring?
  • Is the manufacturing going into that direction?
  • Can retail Industry be an example that is more evolved?

An easy map to give perspective:

Any idea?
