The Asia Pacific is Expected to be a Significant Regional Market for Contactless Payment

The Asia Pacific is expected to be a major regional market for contactless payments in the coming years and is projected to witness a robust growth over the forecast period. The market in the region is being driven by the rising penetration of smartphones and flourishing e-commerce, leading to an increased adoption of digital wallets. QR codes are gaining increasing popularity in the Asia Pacific, which is further propelling the growth of the market in the region. The COVID-19 pandemic has also positively affected the contactless payments industry in the Asia Pacific region. Online shopping became necessary during lockdowns and various restrictions on physical stores amidst the pandemic, further fuelling the growth of the digital payment industry in the region.

Within the Asia Pacific, India is witnessing a strong growth in terms of the adoption of digital payments. The contactless payment market has been witnessing robust growth in India, especially since the demonetisation of a few currency notes, which happened in 2016. The introduction of favourable government initiatives and the development of the UPI system has further propelled the growth of the market.
