The reports categorize the global near field communication chips market as a part of the global semiconductor market within the overall global semiconductors and semiconductor equipment market. The parent global semiconductor market covers manufacturers of semiconductors and related products. Our research report has extensively covered external factors influencing the parent market growth during the forecast period.
The increased adoption of contactless payments is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as low awareness of NFC technology may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Near Field Communication (NFC) Chips Market Driver
The increased adoption of contactless payments is notably driving market growth. Contactless payment is a method through which consumers can purchase products using their credit cards, debit cards, or smartphones with NFC technology. Contactless payment is fast, convenient, and secure. It also helps the merchants in improving their in-store payment experience for the customers. The technology can reduce the customer time taken to make the payment and eventually the waiting time in a queue.
The increasing use of mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Samsung Pay has contributed to the growth of contactless payments. These mobile wallets use NFC technology to wirelessly transmit payment data to payment terminals with NFC readers. The rising prevalence of contactless payments and the increasing use of contactless cards and mobile payments are expected to drive the demand for NFC card readers across POS terminals. This will drive the demand for NFC chips during the forecast period.
Significant Near Field Communication (NFC) Chips Market Trend
Increasing demand for smart parking is the primary trend in the market. NFC-enabled identification and payment solutions are expected to play significant roles in smart parking during the forecast period. The NFC technology will be an integral technology for smart parking.
The rising number of smart city initiatives has accelerated the demand for smart parking solutions, which integrate access control readers or NFC readers to read and fetch the database. 91springboard, a global provider of co-working office spaces on rent. There are over 2,000 start-ups that work out of its properties. The facility provides access control of any type such as NFC, QR code, BLE, Wi-Fi, and others. The access controls present in the entry points are integrated with chips such as NFC ICs, Bluetooth ICs, and wireless ICs. Such developments in the market is likely to drive the growth of the NFC chips market during the forecast period.
Major Near Field Communication (NFC) Chips Market Challenge
Low awareness of NFC technology is the major challenge impeding market growth. The majority of the countries, such as China and India, in the region, use QR codes more often. This is primarily because of the increasing awareness of payment services such as Alipay and Paytm. Also, most of the customers in these regions are price-sensitive and prefer buying low-priced and medium-priced smartphones. As a result, smartphone manufacturers such as OPPO, LG Electronics, Xiaomi, and others are trying to reduce the use of NFC chips in their devices. The removal of NFC chips from their devices is expected to bring down the cost of their products by a few dollars.
The cost of NFC chips that are integrated into smartphones ranges from USD 1.7 to USD 5.56 per unit. Smartphones are one of the large-volume application segments for NFC chips. The smartphone market segment has a high influence on the volume growth of the market. With the reduced adoption of NFC chips in key market segments, the barriers to market growth will increase. This will affect the unit shipment of NFC chips during the forecast period.

The market share growth of the non-auxiliary segment will be significant during the forecast period. Non-auxiliary NFC products primarily include internal NFC-enabled accessories, such as NFC IC/Chips built for smartphones to perform contactless payments, access control, and secure data sharing with other NFC devices. While passive NFC tags are typically read by NFC readers, NFC readers are frequently integrated into contactless POS terminals and access gateways for public transportation. Thus, the growing demand for contactless POS terminals across the retail sector is majorly driving the growth of the non-auxiliary segment in the global NFC chips market during the forecast period.
