Abstract
This paper models the demand for merchant acceptance and consumer usage of a four-party payment scheme in the bill payment market. Within a cointegrating framework, demand equations are estimated using vector error correction models. Results illustrate the importance of network effects in determining consumer usage and merchant demand. Additionally, price elasticities suggest the market for payments in Australia is competitive.
