Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year and the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The rising number of online transactions is a major mobile payments market driver. Online transactions are becoming more popular among consumers because of their ease, speed, and convenience. Mobile devices, especially smartphones, are widely used for online transactions. Digital wallets are the most preferred mode of payment because of their easy registration, robust payment processing capabilities, and user-friendly dashboard.
Mobile payments are gaining popularity due to the increasing use of mobile devices and wearables. Retailers are adopting NFC POS terminals to facilitate mobile payments and enhance their marketing efforts. This streamlined process helps generate more revenue for retailers. The adoption of contactless EMV cards will likely encourage the implementation of NFC POS terminals. Faster checkouts, effective information management, and secure payments contribute to the growth of the global mobile payments market.
The growing emergence of mobile apps for shopping transactions is a primary mobile payments market trend. In recent times, online shopping transactions have risen higher in mobile apps than on websites due to the increasing penetration of smart devices in the market. Therefore, to capture these opportunities, vendors are trying to switch from websites to app-only services. Mobile payments in countries such as India have been growing faster as more consumers and businesses adopted mobile payments during the pandemic. In addition, compared with developed countries, switching to app-only services can turn into a major failure for e-commerce providers, as many developing countries such as Indonesia and Thailand still face problems with Internet connectivity, which restricts customers from making online purchases. Some new launches of mobile payment applications are listed below:
These factors are highly impacting the market.
Privacy and security concerns are major challenges faced by the mobile payments market. Payment service providers use online cookies to gather personal data and information on customers so that they can customize their advertising messages to target key audiences. The indiscriminate use of cookies can infringe on customer privacy, while location-based online services have also raised privacy concerns because these can reveal the geographical location of the customer. In general, online retailers may collect a large volume of data, including details such as addresses, credit card information, passwords, and other credentials. Many companies also collect a large volume of data through cookies and other methods to determine customer demographics and ensure better target advertising for future transactions. Confidential information, including those related to consumer addresses and credit card information, poses risks because m-commerce involves monetary transitions in real time. Moreover, data theft can lead to financial losses for customers. These factors can adversely affect the online experience of customers and hinder the potential growth of the market during the forecast period.

The market share growth by the remote payment segment will be significant during the forecast period. The introduction of mobile payment gateways, such as Apple Inc. has simplified the process of paying bills.
Get a glance at the market contribution of various segments View Sample PDF
The remote payment segment was valued at USD 14,245.83 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. Customers no longer need to carry credit or debit cards. Several retail outlets make use of POS terminals for payment of the purchases made by consumers. A POS terminal is a portable device that can accept and process payments over Wi-Fi and print out receipts. One of the main reasons for big players to offer near-field communication (NFC)-based mobile payment options is the high-security features that prevent the consumer and retailer from accessing card information or security code illegitimately. Such, benefits are the reasons behind the segment growth during the forecast period.
Mobile payment gateways like Apple Inc. have simplified bill payments without the need for credit or debit cards. Retail outlets use POS terminals to process payments over Wi-Fi and print receipts. The high security features of NFC-based mobile payments prevent access to card information or security codes by unauthorized parties. Users save financial data on their phones and make transactions by bringing their phone closer to the vendor's contactless payment-capable POS system, then authenticate using biometrics or passwords.
The increased use of mobile devices and wearables has popularized mobile payments, and many retailers adopt NFC POS terminals to streamline operations and boost revenue. Contactless EMV cards will encourage more use of NFC POS terminals. Faster checkouts, the adoption of EMV cards, effective information management, and secure payments are driving factors in the growth of the global mobile payments market.
