Additionally, the rising adoption of smartphones and the growing preference for contactless payments worldwide are expected to drive the market's growth. Mobile payment options are fast and convenient to use. Customers can make payments quickly and easily using their smartphones without needing cash or physical cards. This convenience has made mobile payments an attractive option for consumers.

The rise of fintech has positively affected the payment security market. Fintech companies have invested heavily in developing new and improved payment security trends, such as two-factor authentication, biometric authentication, and tokenization. These trends or payment measures are designed to enhance the security of digital payments and protect against fraud. Additionally, fintech companies have raised awareness about the importance among consumers. As a result, customers are more likely to demand secure payment options and are willing to pay a premium for secure transactions.

Regulatory compliances play a crucial role by establishing standards and requirements that must be met to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of payment systems and data. Compliance with these regulations helps to prevent fraud, data breaches, and other security incidents that can compromise sensitive financial information and damage the reputation of payment providers and merchants. For instance, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) sets requirements for organizations that process, transmit, or store cardholder data. PCI DSS compliance includes network security, access controls, data encryption, and regular testing and monitoring of payment systems.

Data breaches are becoming more frequent and severe with cybercriminals using increasingly sophisticated methods to steal sensitive information such as payment card data, Personally Identifiable Information (PII), and financial records. This puts individuals and businesses at risk of financial loss, identity theft, and reputational damage. The market must address these concerns to maintain trust in digital payment systems and prevent fraud. One of the main challenges for providers is to keep pace with cybercriminals' constantly evolving tactics and strategies. As these cybercriminals become more sophisticated in their methods, payment security providers must develop more advanced solutions to protect against them. This requires significant investment in research and development to stay ahead of emerging threats, which can be costly.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the growth of the market. According to the Red Book Statistics from the BIS Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI), the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated payment digitization. Consumers migrated from physical cash to contactless and digital payment instruments. Retailers were increasingly making efforts to use digital payments amid the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a report released by World Bank in November 2021, During the COVID-19 pandemic, the private sector shifted to electronic payments and finance.

Solution Insights

The fraud detection & prevention segment dominated the market in 2022 and accounted for a revenue share of more than 52.0%. Fraud is one of the most significant threats to payment systems and data security. Fraud can occur in various forms, including card-not-present fraud, identity theft, account takeover, and social engineering attacks. As payment systems become more complex and transactions move online, the risk of fraud also increases, making fraud detection and prevention solution a critical aspect of payment security.

The tokenization segment is anticipated to register significant growth in the forecast period. Tokenization of payment methods enhances security and ease of use while transacting across various devices, including secure point-of-sale, on-the-go payments, traditional online shopping, and in-app payment systems. Payment tokenization replaces sensitive payment card data, such as the card number and expiration date, with a unique token identifier. The token is used for payment processing and can be securely stored on various devices, such as smartphones, wearables, or computers, to enable quick and easy payments across different channels and platforms.

Platform Insights

The POS based/mobile based segment dominated the market in 2022 and accounted for a revenue share of more than 57.0%. POS (Point of Sale) and mobile-based payment systems are widely used in various industries, including retail, hospitality, healthcare, and transportation. These systems enable merchants and consumers to process payments quickly and securely using various devices such as smartphones, tablets, and POS terminals. POS based/mobile based payment systems are vulnerable to a wide range of security threats, including card skimming, data breaches, malware attacks, and social engineering scams. As a result, payment security vendors have developed a wide range of solutions, such as encryption, tokenization, fraud detection, and multi-factor authentication, to protect these systems and ensure the security of payment transactions.

The web based segment is anticipated to register significant growth in the forecast period. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing adoption of online payments and e-commerce. Web-based payment systems enable consumers to make payments online using their desktop or mobile devices without visiting a physical location or using a specific payment terminal. This convenience has significantly increased online transactions, making web-based payment systems a critical component of the overall payment ecosystem.

Organization Insights

The large enterprises segment dominated the market in 2022 and accounted for a revenue share of over 67.0%. Payment security is a critical aspect of business operations, and it is essential to have strong security measures in place to protect sensitive customer data and prevent fraud. Large enterprises typically have more resources to invest in the latest security technologies and systems. Additionally, large enterprises tend to have a higher volume of transactions and a more extensive customer base, which increases the risk of fraud and cyber-attacks. As a result, they are more likely to prioritize investment in advanced security measures to protect their business and customers.

The small & medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) segment is anticipated to register significant growth. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing adoption of digital payment solutions, such as mobile payments, e-commerce platforms, and online payment gateways, to streamline their payment processes and reach a broader customer base. In April 2022, Microsoft surveyed above 150 small and medium enterprises in the U.S. to help understand their security needs. According to the survey, more than 70% of SMEs cyber threats and payment securities are becoming more of a business risk with nearly 25% of small businesses reporting a security breach in the previous year.

Application Insights

The retail & e-commerce segment dominated the market in 2022 and accounted for a global revenue share of over 26.0%. One of the main reasons is the significant growth of online retail and e-commerce over the past decade, which has led to an increased demand for secure payment processing solutions. As consumers increasingly shop online, they must feel confident that their payment information is safe and secure. Retail and e-commerce companies have responded to this demand by investing heavily in payment security technologies and solutions. They have developed sophisticated fraud detection and prevention systems that use machine learning algorithms and other advanced techniques to identify and prevent fraudulent transactions.

Global Payment Security Market share, by application, 2022 (%)

The education segment is anticipated to register significant growth in the forecast period. The education sector is increasingly adopting digital payment solutions, such as online tuition payment portals and mobile payment apps, to streamline payment processes and improve the overall payment experience for students and their families. Adopting digital payment solutions has increased the demand for payment security in the education sector. Additionally, cybercriminals often target educational institutions as they hold large amounts of sensitive information and are perceived to have weaker security measures than other industries. This makes it crucial for educational institutions to invest in robust solutions to protect against these threats.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the payment security market in 2022 and accounted for a revenue share of more than 35.0%. The presence and focus of prominent payment security providers, such as Visa Inc., U.S. Bancorp, Mastercard, and Shift4, make North America a promising market for payment security.

Payment Security Market Trends, by Region, 2023 - 2030

Asia Pacific is anticipated to emerge as the fastest-growing market from 2023 to 2030. The region’s growth can be attributed to the increasing number of regulatory requirements and compliance standards for payment security. Many Asia Pacific countries such as China, India, and Japan, have implemented strict regulations and guidelines for payment security, leading to the market's growth. For instance, the Indian government established the Payments Infrastructure Development Fund (PIDF) in January 2021 and deployed quick digital payment services such as Unified Payments Interface (UPI) and BHIM. Authorities have been guiding the payments industry through litigation and regulations to raise a competitive environment that prioritizes consumer protection.

Key Companies & Market Share Insights

The latest trends adopted by payment security providers are multi-factor authentication, tokenization, machine learning, artificial intelligence, end-to-end encryption, fraud detection and prevention, and blockchain technology.
