Coin Sorter Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The accurate counting of coins is notably driving the coin sorter market growth, although factors such as increased number of card transactions may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the coin sorter industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Coin Sorter Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the global coin sorter industry growth is the accurate counting of coins. These counting errors can result in losses and can complicate the maintenance of financial records. Coin sorter provides high levels of accuracy, thus, they are used for counting, sorting, and currency authentication. The coin sorters are used in banks, railway stations, airports, and shopping malls, where cash exchange takes place regularly. Coin sorter machines offer increased convenience as they can count large amounts of money at a significantly faster rate than humans and with a high degree of precision. They save time and increase the operational efficiency of businesses. Such factors will be driving the demand for coin sorters during the forecast period.

Key Coin Sorter Market Trend

Rising number of bank branches in developing economies is one of the key coin sorter market trends that is expected to impact the industry positively in the forecast period. Banks in emerging economies are opening branches to tap the unbanked population in countries such as India, which will drive the demand for coin sorters. For instance, the number of commercial bank branches in India grew from 9.28 per 100,000 adults in 2008 to 14.7 per 100,000 adults in 2020. Similarly, the number of commercial bank branches in Armenia grew from 17.3 per 100,000 adults in 2008 to 24.6 per 100,000 adults in 2020. Such factors may fuel the growth of the market in the forecast years.

Key Coin Sorter Market Challenge

One of the key challenges to the global coin sorter industry growth is the increased number of card transactions. The rise in the number of cashless payment transactions by consumers poses a threat to coin sorters. Consumers are using online modes of payment or cards to shop at retail or hospitality business stores for making convenient payments. Thus, banks and merchants are investing in cashless technology and the market. In 2021, approximately more than half of all payment transactions globally were done using cards. Moreover, the growth of the retail e-commerce industry has been fueled by the increase in online payments, which will hinder the growth of the coin sorter machine market during the forecast period.

This coin sorter market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
