Abstract
The introduction of a financial service – the easy pay system – in Hong Kong is the subject of study. It is a form of electronic fund transfer at point of sale and is considered as a continuous innovation in the evolution of the electronic fund transfer systems. Irrespective of the theoretical benefits – safe, convenient and a sound approach to fund management – associated with the service, the adoption rate is not encouraging. The peculiarities of the marketing issues associated with the life cycle of financial service innovations are discussed. It is contended that the successful introduction of services in the earlier stages of the life cycle may be both an asset and a liability to later innovations. As such, a continuous educational programme is deemed necessary to capitalise on the positive effects carried over from earlier phases of the life cycle.
