Digital Payment Market: Key Drivers and Trends
The rising number of online transactions is notably driving the digital payment market growth, although factors such as privacy and security concerns may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the digital payment industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Digital Payment Market Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the digital payment market is the rising number of online transactions. Online transactions are gaining importance among individual consumers, as they are very easy, quick, and convenient to use when compared with traditional methods. Consumers are also using smartphones to make online transactions at any time. Many retailers are adopting platforms such as NFC POS terminals that facilitate mobile payments. NFC POS terminals also boost the value and effectiveness of a retailer's marketing efforts. The process of streamlining operations helps retailers generate more revenue. The high adoption of contactless Europay, MasterCard, and Visa (EMV) cards will likely encourage the implementation of NFC POS terminals. The growing need for faster checkouts at retail outlets, the high adoption of EMV cards, effective information management among retailers, and the increased focus on secure payments contribute to the growth of the global digital payment market.
Key Digital Payment Market Challenge
The privacy and security concerns will be a major challenge for the digital payment market during the forecast period. Payment service providers use online cookies to gather personal data and customer information so that they can customize advertising messages to target key audiences. The indiscriminate use of cookies can infringe on client privacy, while location-based online services have raised privacy concerns because these can reveal the geographical location of the customers. Many companies also collect a large volume of data through cookies and other methods to determine demographics and better target advertising for future transactions. Confidential information, including consumer address and credit card information, is deterrent because m-commerce involves monetary transitions in real-time. These factors can inhibit the online experience of customers and hinder the potential growth of the market.
