According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Commercial Payment Terminals Market is growing at a CAGR of 14.5% during the forecast period. Commercial payment terminals are devices used by businesses to process electronic payments, primarily through credit and debit cards. These terminals facilitate secure transactions by reading card information via magnetic stripes, chips, or contactless methods like NFC (Near Field Communication). They connect to payment processors over various networks, ensuring that the funds are appropriately transferred from the customer’s bank to the merchant’s account. Modern payment terminals often support additional functionalities, such as printing receipts, tipping options, and integration with point-of-sale (POS) systems. They can also handle various payment methods, including mobile wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay, enhancing customer convenience and satisfaction.
According to statistics from worldplay the most popular payment method in the UK last year was debit cards which accounted for 45 % and 28 % respectively of all payments made at POS terminals
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Shift towards cashless transactions
Increased adoption of credit/debit cards, mobile payments, and digital wallets has driven demand for advanced payment terminals. These terminals are becoming more sophisticated, offering enhanced security features, faster processing speeds, and greater compatibility with various payment methods. Businesses are investing in these technologies to meet consumer preferences for convenient and secure payment options. Consequently, the market is experiencing robust growth, fueled by technological advancements, regulatory support for digital payments, and a global trend towards reducing cash usage.
Restraint:
Security concerns
Incidents of fraud, data breaches, and hacking attacks highlight vulnerabilities in payment systems, leading to increased scrutiny and regulatory pressures. These security issues necessitate significant investments in advanced encryption, tokenization, and compliance with stringent standards like PCI DSS, which can be costly for businesses. Additionally, frequent updates and maintenance to safeguard against emerging threats can strain resources.
Opportunity:
Increasing adoption of mobile wallets
As consumers prefer the convenience and speed of mobile wallet transactions, businesses are investing in updated payment terminals to accommodate this demand. This trend encourages technological advancements and innovation in terminal features, enhancing security and user experience. Consequently, the market for commercial payment terminals is expanding, with manufacturers focusing on developing versatile, future-proof devices that seamlessly integrate with mobile payment solutions, thereby boosting overall market growth.
Threat:
Competition from alternative payment methods
Competition from alternative payment methods, such as peer-to-peer (P2P) payment apps and cryptocurrency, negatively impacts the commercial payment terminals market by reducing reliance on traditional card-based transactions. These alternatives often bypass traditional payment terminals, offering direct, fee-free, and convenient transaction options. As consumers and businesses adopt these methods, demand for conventional payment terminals may decline. This shift forces terminal providers to innovate and adapt, incurring additional costs hampering the growth of the market.
Covid-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the commercial payment terminals market by accelerating the shift towards cashless and contactless payments. Health concerns over virus transmission prompted consumers and businesses to favor electronic transactions, driving demand for advanced payment terminals. Retailers and service providers invested in contactless-enabled devices to meet this new preference, enhancing market growth. However, the economic downturn and disruptions in global supply chains caused temporary slowdowns in production and deployment.
The integrated payment system segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The integrated payment system is expected to be the largest during the forecast period as these systems combine payment processing with other business operations, such as inventory management and customer relationship management (CRM), into a single platform. This integration streamlines operations for merchants, offering a seamless and efficient solution that reduces the need for multiple devices and systems. Consequently, demand for multifunctional, integrated payment terminals increases, driving innovation and market growth.
The magnetic stripe readers segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The magnetic stripe readers segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the shift towards more secure and advanced payment technologies. While they were once standard, the rise of EMV chip cards and contactless payments has led to a decline in reliance on magnetic stripe readers. This shift pressures terminal manufacturers to innovate and upgrade their devices to support newer technologies, potentially reducing the market share of traditional magnetic stripe readers.
Region with largest share:
North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period as the region is at the forefront of adopting advanced payment technologies, including EMV chip cards, contactless payments, and mobile wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay. This trend demands continual upgrades and innovation in payment terminal features. Moreover stringent security regulations, such as PCI DSS compliance, influence the market, necessitating robust security features in payment terminals to protect against fraud and data breaches drive the market growth in this region.
Region with highest CAGR:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to region's increasing digitalization and smartphone penetration are driving the adoption of electronic payment methods, including mobile wallets and QR code payments. In addition the sheer size of the population and the emergence of various economies present vast opportunities for payment terminal providers to tap into a growing market.
