Increasing adoption and penetration of immediate payment systems is expected to boost growth of the global mobile payment technologies market during the forecast period

Digital payment solutions are witnessing significant demand across the globe. Digital payment systems enable consumers to carry out immediate payment with a smartphone. For instance, customers are adopting mobile payment technology due to 24x7 access to payment functionality via smartphones, expanded access channels, immediate funds visibility, and security solutions. Consequently, these factors are propelling growth of the mobile payment technologies market. Moreover, growing adoption of mobile payments technology including the use of various applications and mobile wallets has led to introduction of cashless technology corporations into the payment landscape. Therefore, rising adoption and proliferation of immediate payment options are expected to boost the global mobile payment technologies market growth over the forecast period.

Market Opportunity

Rising integration cloud-based technology with payment options is expected to present lucrative growth opportunities

Growing focus on cloud-based payment solutions has increased significantly the recent past, thereby boosting the adoption of mobile payment technology across the globe. Cloud-based payment technology enables consumers to perform near-field communication (NFC) card emulation without using a hardware secure element (SE) in mobile phones. Furthermore, cloud-based payment solutions offer high levels of security, compliance, and interoperability. Intense competition among non-banking players is expected to compel conventional players to implement cloud-based payment solutions for better agility and enhance business strategies. HCE (Host Card Emulation) and Cloud-based payments have greatly increased the possibilities for banks, telecommunication companies, and others to provide better mobile payment services to their customers. For instance, in 2014, Visa, Inc. and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A (BBVA) launched First Commercial Solution for cloud-based mobile payments. Visa’s cloud-based payments specification enables the global expansion of the BBVA Wallet, specifically in the U.S., Chile, Spain, and Mexico.    

Market Restraint

Low consumer interest in adopting new technology is expected to hinder the global mobile payment technologies market growth over the forecast period

Consumer preferences are one of the major factors responsible for hindering the growth of the mobile payment technologies market. This is largely due to the lack of awareness of specific mobile payment services and features available for particular smartphones among end-users. Apart from this, consumers are worried about the security and privacy of mobile wallets due to an increasing number of cyber-attacks on financial information. Thus, many consumers prefer traditional payment systems for any payment, which is hindering the growth of this market. According to CMI’s analysis, in North America, 52% of consumers are extremely aware of mobile payment technologies. Despite this awareness, only 18% of them make payments through mobile technologies across the region. Therefore, consumer interest and awareness are major barriers to the adoption of mobile payment technology. Consumers remain loyal to traditional payment systems and show low interest in picking up new ground-breaking technologies. Consequently, this would hamper growth of the mobile payment technologies market.
