Future of smart cards - Growing adoption of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and advancements in micro-embedded electronics

Smart cards prevent the risk of fraudulent activities such as data theft and cloning due to their enhanced security features. They also contribute toward cost saving for payment merchants, thereby encouraging the adoption of these cards for digital services and reduced overhead costs for service providers.

The demand for smart cards is mainly attributed to their cost effectiveness that allows the product to be used in applications such as ticketing, digital banking services, and communication. Its tamper-proof storage and user identity data storage capabilities are superior to other conventional machine readable cards.

Smart cards are used in several applications including the retail, healthcare, government, and hospitality sectors, promoting the market demand over the forecast period by providing effective data storage, efficient payment transactions, and faster processing time.

The increasing use of smart cards in the telecommunication and BFSI segments is expected to drive the market over the next nine years. Their implementation in retail applications enables secure transactions and provides new opportunities to the market.

Smart cards are extensively used to enable secure payment transactions and to promote cashless payments, thereby, enabling cost savings for payment merchants and offering convenience to the consumers. The use of mobile phones and IoT devices has further promoted the use of SIM & data chips thereby driving the demand for the product. These devices are increasingly used in retail applications to enable faster transactions and reduce the checkout time. These advantages are enabling growth of the industry at a significant rate, over the next nine years.
