[119 Pages Report] The payment as a service market size is expected to grow from USD 5.7 billion in 2019 to USD 16.7 billion by 2024, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 23.9% during the forecast period. Regulatory initiatives to promote payment solutions thriving on secure and real-time transactions; and optimized customer/merchant experience with quick and secure payment methods are the major factors driving the growth of the market.
By vertical, the retail vertical to be the significant contributor in the payment as a service market during the forecast period
Due to the evolving customer-centric model, retailers are modernizing their brick-and-mortar stores to provide improved services to their customers and establishing online stores to increase revenue. According to Mobile Payments Conference, in 2017, 1.5 billion people worldwide preferred online shopping. By 2019, the number will grow to 2 billion digital buyers. The growing marketplace of online shopping is paving the way for enterprise merchants, as these shoppers need an easy and safe way to pay for their purchases. Moreover, the retailers are also adopting innovative technologies, such as cloud computing, big data analytics, digital stores, and social networks, to increase their visibility and presence in the market. They are realizing the benefits of contactless payments, which include reduced transaction time, increased revenue, improved operational efficiency, and minimized operating costs.
Managed services segment to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Managed services are crucial, as they are directly related to enhancing customer experience; hence, companies cannot afford to compromise on these services, as they help them sustain their position in the market. It has become challenging for companies to focus on their core business processes and simultaneously support various other functions, which, in turn, increases the significance of managed services. These services offer the technical skills required to maintain and update API-based payment platforms. All pre- and post-deployment queries as well as customer demands are addressed with the help of managed services. Companies mainly outsource managed services to focus on their core business. The emergence of hosted payment solutions is expected to increase the demand for managed services in the payment as a service market. Managed services help merchants reduce infrastructure complexity and operational cost, and simultaneously provide a secure and global infrastructure.
Asia Pacific to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
APAC is expected to witness strong growth owing to the increased demand for integrated payment solutions and advancements in payment technologies, benefitting all stakeholders present in the payment ecosystem in the APAC region. The region includes major economies, such as China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand, which are making consistent improvements in their payment industry. The countries in the region have undertaken major initiatives to improve the payment industry. For instance, the Asian Payments Network (APN) is a group of 11 Asian countries that include China, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, South Korea, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia to promote cross-border banking transactions in the region. Moreover, the rapid growth of the payment as a service market in the region can be attributed to the active online engagement of consumers in the emerging countries of the region.
