This study aims to analyze the nuances of national and international patents related to the e wallet market (digital wallet, in Portuguese). The digital wallet is an electronic solution that allows the storage of financial and personal data, so that they can be used, later, in financial and commercial operations. In this work, a technological prospecting related to the proposed theme was carried out through extensive exploration in the patent databases, operating the Questel Orbit platform. The research carried out in September 2021 found 114 protected technologies, worldwide, in the period covered from 1998 to 2019. The results show that the technological changes inserted in the digital payment system have been incorporated in several countries, thus demonstrating a financial inclusion in the choice of this payment model by consumers. However, in order to guarantee the reliability of digital payment systems, the information security guaranteed by the companies responsible for the service will be essential, obeying the specific legislation of the technological sector.
