The global real-time payments market size is expected to reach USD 193.08 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 35.5% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing digitization in the fintech sector and growing volumes of non-cash transactions. In addition, the increasing popularity of open API-enabled real-time payment systems in banks is also expected to contribute to market growth. For instance, as per a survey conducted by Finastra, a fintech firm, in 2020, 86% of global banks surveyed were planning to adopt open APIs to enable open banking capabilities by next year. Numerous fintech companies are making efforts to develop innovative solutions to ensure better security while making payments using bank cards and smartphones.
Fintech companies are also striking partnerships with payment technology companies to improve their digital offerings and effectively meet the changing consumer demands. For instance, in November 2020, Payments Canada, an organization that operates the payment clearing and settlement system, and Mastercard, a payment technology company, announced their partnership to improve Canada’s real-time payment solution. As part of this partnership, Payments Canada selected Mastercard’s Vocalink as the clearing and settlement solution provider for the country’s real-time payment system, the Real-Time Rail (RTR). The increasing adoption of technologies, such as facial recognition systems, for digital payments in the retail industry is expected to drive market growth.
For instance, in June 2020, Panasonic Corporation of North America and PopID, a payment terminals solution provider, announced their partnership to provide facial recognition payment processes to the restaurant and retail industries. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to accelerate the demand for real-time payment solutions. In an attempt to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, retailers and consumers are adopting contactless payment methods. The growing popularity of online shopping in the wake of the pandemic is also expected to propel market growth over the forecast period.
