What are the key drivers behind the rapid expansion of the point of sale market?
The rising adoption of contactless payments is expected to propel the growth of the point of sale market going forward. Contactless payments are a secure method of transaction where consumers can pay for goods or services by simply tapping or waving a payment-enabled card, smartphone, or wearable device near a compatible payment terminal, without the need for physical contact. The rising adoption of contactless payments is driven by factors such as convenience, speed, enhanced security features, the widespread use of smartphones and wearable devices, and a shift towards hygiene-conscious payment methods, especially post-pandemic. Point of sale (POS) systems drive the adoption of contactless payments by allowing merchants to process quick, secure, and effortless transactions via NFC-enabled devices, improving customer satisfaction and promoting broader use. For instance, in January 2024, according to the European Central Bank, a Germany-based central bank of the European Union countries, the number of contactless card payments in the first half of 2023 increased by 24.3% from 20.9 billion in the first half of 2022, with the corresponding total value rising by 25.9% to €0.5 trillion ($545.27 billion). Therefore, the rising adoption of contactless payments is driving the growth of the point of sale market.
