Market Overview

The term "mobile payment" describes an automated payment method performed using a mobile device while being financially supervised by regulatory bodies. It is a type of electronic payment in which mobile devices are used to approve, start, and validate financial transactions. These methods entail using a mobile application that is connected to the user's financial information. The presence of point-of-sale (POS) terminals and nearfield communications facilitates the exchange of money.

Customers can pay with greater security due to mobile POS systems because they don't store user data on the merchant's POS device. The hassle of handling traditional payment methods, such as cash and cheques, has been reduced by the use of mobile payments. Users now have greater convenience and data protection owing to these automated systems. They are therefore widely used in many different operational segments across many different end-use businesses, such as food service, retail, and entertainment.

Growth Drivers

• Increasing Use of Mobile POS is expected to drive the market growth

The ability of smartphones to accept payments immediately has been greatly benefited by mobile point of sale. The mPOS technology frees all companies from their in-person and brick-and-mortar transactions. The use of mPOS devices limits liability because they reduce the risk of security breaches and make it simpler and faster to comply with regulations. Transactions are encrypted, and card information is not kept on the mPOS device. Mobile money payments can now have an additional layer of protection due to the use of biometrics like fingerprint and facial recognition with mPOS. Employees can view previous transactions, internet browsing history, loyalty points, and other information with mPOS to better understand customer needs. These tools have improved customer experience, but also improve staff performance.

Restraints

• Security concerns and inconvenience to the online mode of payment act as a major restraint

Even though mobile payment solutions offer several benefits like improved operability, reliability, and flexibility, end users are still heavily reliant on cash for their everyday activities. People are hesitant to embrace new technologies because they have been using the traditional payment method for a while. Due to their habits, customers feel secure using the conventional method of payment when the transaction amount is high. Additionally, it is anticipated that the security issue regarding mobile payments will restrain the global mobile payment industry market expansion.

Opportunities

• Contactless payments to be used as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic

As consumers and companies are compelled to alter their purchasing behaviors due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this has had a significant effect on the mobile money market. Given the importance of contactless payments for transactions, there has been a phenomenal increase in the use of mobile wallets. Many users have tried mobile wallets because they want to avoid using cash or cards to prevent the COVID-19 virus from spreading. Mobile money is crucial for every transaction because the COVID-19 disaster makes every day more difficult and consumers have grown accustomed to using digital payments.

Challenges

• Insufficient confidence in mobile payments poses a major challenge

A significant factor that will constrain the mobile payment industry market during the forecast period is low confidence in mobile payments. For instance, a report released by YourGov found that 38% of mobile users have low confidence in security and that 43% of users don't believe in mobile payments. Thus, acting as a major challenge for market growth.
