KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

Smart cards are generally made up of plastic-based cards with the electronic chip inserted in it and are widely used for information transfer related to the payments, user identification, and control. IC chips embedded in such cards are available in different types that are based on various applications such as meal vouchers and employee benefits, payment gateways, gaming, etc.


Companies are largely introducing technology-based smart cards to provide secure financial solutions to users. For instance, in November 2019, Innovatrics, a Slovakian biometric firm partnered with Japanese tech-firm, MoriX Co. Ltd. to launch a world-first bio-metric smart card that can be authenticated with the fingerprint detection.

Rising information security needs related to the user credentials is expected to drive the consumer demand for the highly secured smart cards. The increasing availability of the small-sized IC chips with better functionality embedded into it is likely to help the companies to provide technology-enabled smart cards to their customers. Besides this, growing consumer demand for smart gadgets is likely to drive the demand for smart cards.

Moreover, the rising number of online shoppers, as well as the e-commerce penetration across the globe, results in the large consumption of the smart cards among the people to make secure transaction activities during product purchases. Additionally, growing transportation facilities such as airplanes, railways, and buses are likely to fuel the demand for smart cards for user identification purposes. For instance, in August 2020, the Government of Delhi, India provided smart cards to the daily metro commutes for user authentication purposes. Such cards can be connected with the mobile application ‘Autope’ so that users can easily pay ticket fares of the metro.

However, the wide availability of the other financial payment methods such as bank drafts, cheques, internet banking is anticipated to limit the demand for smart payment cards.
