Abstract

Scholars and practitioners agree that the future of payment is mobile contactless payment (MCP). However, while many projects concerning the implementation of MCP solutions have been started, MCP is still not available in most countries. Concerning this fact, studies on the obstacles to MCP implementation conclude that the formation of interorganizational relationships (IORs) is an important aspect to the success of any MCP project. In this study, the authors research the influence of organizational culture on IORs in the French MCP service, Cityzi. They conducted interviews with executives of the main organizations involved and collected data about the organizational culture using a quantitative questionnaire. The results revealed that the organizations involved in Cityzi emphasize a developmental culture that drives innovation and competition between the organizations involved, which leads to rivalry between them. The authors conclude that the centralized structure around a coordinating organization that displays a group culture supports the implementation of MCP systems.
