Digital payment is a secure payment method that operates over the internet or mobile channels without the involvement of physical exchange of cash. The payment information is stored in a merchant-specific database that is available to both consumers and merchants, which helps in the efficient tracking of transactions. Some of the commonly available digital payment methods include banking cards, mobile wallets, and internet banking. As compared to traditional modes of payments, digital payments are more convenient and flexible, and reduce geographical barriers. These reliable solutions process transactions through secure gateways, which enable users to pay directly from their bank accounts.

Market Trends and Drivers:

The global digital payment market is primarily being driven by the easy accessibility to high-speed internet, especially in developing economies. This is further catalyzed by the introduction of the 5G network and rising sales of smartphones. Moreover, governments of various nations are increasingly undertaking initiatives to promote cashless transactions. This, along with the sudden outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, is acting as a major growth-inducing factor as digital payment options are contactless, which, in turn, reduces the chances of the spread of the virus significantly. Other factors, such as the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology and increasing mobile payment options, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
