<![CDATA[This study aims to compare the factors that influence the adoption of e-wallets in developed and developing countries and analyse their implications for financial inclusion. The results show that in developing countries, e-wallets play an important role in expanding access to formal finance, especially for the unbanked and micro-entrepreneurs, through ease of access, pro-digital regulations, and mobile technology penetration. Conversely, in developed countries, e-wallet adoption is more focused on improving transaction efficiency and convenience within an already established financial ecosystem, so that its impact on financial inclusion is relatively limited.
