Market Dynamic
The global expansion of smartphones has played a major role in driving the mobile payment technologies market. With more people owning smartphones, the potential user base for mobile payment solutions has significantly expanded, resulting in a rise in the demand for these services. The growth in e-commerce & m-commerce has further grown the need for mobile payment technologies. Moreover, a growing number of consumers are turning to their smartphones for online shopping, & mobile payments provide a convenient & secure way to complete these transactions, standing as a more reliable alternative to cash.
However, the large adoption of mobile payment technologies depends on the presence of strong & dependable telecommunications infrastructure. In areas with insufficient network coverage or slow internet speeds, many mobile payments may face obstacles. Security is also a major concern in mobile payments, as consumers must have confidence that their financial information remains protected. Any security breaches or instances of fraud can undermine consumer trust in mobile payment technologies, potentially limiting their adoption &usage.
Research Scope and Analysis
By Technology
In the technology segment, the mobile web payment segment emerged as the key segment, driven by the security & flexibility provided by these solutions. Mobile web payments are gaining traction owing to their reliability and the surging popularity of mobile commerce (m-commerce). These payment platforms come with a user-friendly URL, making it convenient for customers to bookmark and revisit websites, enhancing the user experience.
Also, the near-field communication (NFC) segment is expected to experience the highest growth in the forecast period. NFC technology enables businesses to easily integrate customer loyalty programs into their payment processes & allows customers to quickly redeem coupons using their mobile phones. The rise in the number of e-commerce platforms & the ongoing integration of cutting-edge technologies in financial transactions will drive the growth of NFC-based payments. Factors like the growth in adoption of wearable payment devices & the booming trend of mobile commerce are expected to further boost the adoption of NFC-based payment solutions.
By Payment Type
The B2B (Business-to-Business) segment is a major driving factor, which also leads the way in terms of revenue share in 2023, as significant investments from private equity & venture capital firms in the B2B payments sector are creating the way for fresh growth opportunities. In addition, banks are highly embracing B2B mobile payment solutions to improve the experience for their business clients.
Further, the B2C (Business-to-Consumer) segment is expected to experience the highest growth throughout the forecast period, as B2C payments refer to transactions made by individual consumers when purchasing products or subscribing to services for personal use, as the segment is on the rise, owing to the growing number of mobile payments in the e-commerce industry. Further, as per a recent report by SalesForce mobile users account for over 60% of the total e-commerce traffic worldwide. Thus, the increasing global adoption of digital wallets is anticipated to drive the growth of the B2C segment further in the coming years.
By Location
In 2023, the remote payment segment takes the lead in terms of revenue share. Remote payments have gained significant popularity, mainly due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic expanded the adoption of remote payments as they allow contactless transactions, removing the need for direct interaction during the payment process. Many companies have introduced remote payment apps to facilitate convenient & secure remote payments for their customers.
Further, the proximity payment segment is expected to experience the highest growth during the forecast period. Proximity payments include transactions between the payer & payee's devices using methods like QR codes, NFC, or Bluetooth connectivity, typically at physical point-of-sale (POS) terminals. The use of proximity payments has grown in the post-pandemic era, as banks, fintech industries, & businesses look to enhance the digital experience for their customers & minimize operational costs, which reflects a growing desire for efficient & contactless payment options.
By End User
The BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) sector takes the lead with a substantial share of the market's revenue in 2023, as several banks are actively pushing for the adoption of mobile payment solutions, contributing highly to the segment's growth. Furthermore, businesses within this sector are looking to embrace personalized & comprehensive payment solutions, which assist in tackling particular challenges across areas like wealth management, lending, & insurance. Mobile banking & payments provide banks a chance to improve convenience for their current customers & extend their services to a bigger population of unbanked individuals in developing nations.
Further, the retail & e-commerce sector is expected to notice the highest growth throughout the forecast period, with the growth driven by the rise in number of smartphone users, leading to a growth in mobile commerce sales.
