Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The ease of transaction for users and merchants is notably driving the contactless PoS terminals market growth, although factors such as the regulations on contactless payment transactions may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the contactless PoS terminals industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Contactless PoS Terminals Market Driver
The value proposition created by the introduction of the contactless PoS terminals is advantageous for both users and merchants because of their reduced transaction time. The use of contactless PoS terminals increases operational efficiency for retailers and merchants.Contactless PoS terminals have enhanced user experience as NFC-based devices are easy to use, faster, and have higher security prospects compared with the traditional PoS systems. Since the contactless PoS terminals are based on NFC technology, they play a significant role in the reduction of thefts as the risk of skimming (the practice of fraudulently procuring card data using the card's magnetic strip with a handheld electronic device) is reduced. As a result, the demand for these contactless terminals has increased as they provide value offerings to both the user and the merchant in the purchasing cycle, especially in an established retail unit such as Walmart. This demand is expected to increase through the retail and hospitality sectors during the forecasted period.
Key Contactless PoS Terminals Market Trend
Another significant trend that is expected to gain prominence is the increasing penetration of cloud-based services in PoS terminals. Cloud-based PoS software is gaining prominence in the market. The cloud-based system itself can be directly accessed from the Web and is usually compatible with most PoS hardware, including printers and cash register drawers. In addition, cloud-based PoS systems offer convenience and cost significantly less. The prominent advantage of a cloud-based PoS system is that the software upgrade can be done through central servers directly, unlike traditional PoS systems wherein vendors need to upgrade every terminal separately. Furthermore, cloud-based PoS terminals are more secure as they save data on a cloud compared with traditional PoS that use local servers. The penetration of the cloud-based PoS system is expected to increase primarily through the retail and hospitality industry during the forecast period.
Key Contactless PoS Terminals Market Challenge
In the contactless payment transaction, most of the geographical regions have regulated a fixed amount per transaction. This cap on single payments allows users to make only small transactions through NFC-based devices such as smartphones. This has limited the adoption of contactless PoS terminals. The transaction limit also varies depending on government clearances from respective central banks. These limits have been placed to eliminate the incidents of fraud as these NFC-based payment devices are prone to unauthorized access if the PoS terminals are placed in close proximity. Therefore, these regulations make end-users reluctant to use NFC-based devices for bigger purchases, decreasing the adoption of contactless PoS terminals.
