Predicting Mobile Payment Behavior Through Explainable Machine Learning and Application Usage Analysis
2025
Overview
In the increasingly competitive mobile ecosystem, understanding user behavior is essential to improve targeted sales and the effectiveness of advertising. With the widespread adoption of smartphones and the increasing variety of mobile applications, predicting user behavior has become more complex. This study presents a comprehensive framework for predicting mobile payment behavior by integrating demographic, situational, and behavioral factors, focusing on patterns in mobile application usage. To address the complexity of the data, we use a combination of machine-learning models, including extreme gradient boosting, light gradient boosting machine, and CatBoost, along with Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) to improve interpretability. An analysis of extensive panel data from Korean Android users reveals that incorporating application usage behavior in such models considerably improves the accuracy of mobile payment predictions. The study identifies key predictors of payment behavior, indicated by high Shapley values, such as using social networking services (e.g., KakaoTalk and Instagram), media applications (e.g., YouTube), and financial and membership applications (e.g., Toss and OK Cashbag). Moreover, the results of the SHAP force analysis reveal the individual session-level drivers of mobile purchases. These findings advance the literature on mobile payment prediction and offer practical insights for improving targeted marketing strategies by identifying key behavioral drivers of mobile transactions.
