The increase in the adoption of innovative technologies, such as assisted checkouts (ACOs) in the retail industry, is expected to push digital payment industry towards growth. In recent days, various companies have been making efforts to deploy assisted checkout systems in retail stores. For instance, in June 2020, Walmart, a popular retail company has recently announced that they were testing their assisted checkout retail stores at multiple locations in Arkansas and Fayetteville. The traditional cashier checkout lanes in these stores were replaced by self-checkout systems.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on public life has favorably propelled the market towards unprecedented growth. The pandemic has led this industry to an increased number of mobile-based payment solutions and online sales, These factors have been recognized as the major driving forces behind increasing demand for digital payment solutions across the globe. According to the study conducted by Accenture, transactions worth $7 trillion are expected to shift from cash to card and digital payments by 2023.

In presence of events which are acting as a catalyst for growth, i.e. collaborative deals between top players, the market is most likely to witness significant growth. For instance, in December 2023, a collaboration between PayPal Holdings Inc. and SAP was unveiled, marking the introduction of an enhanced integration aimed at streamlining digital payments for SAP customers. This partnership entails the development of a digital payments plug-in designed for the PayPal Braintree platform, leveraging the capabilities of the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP). These initiatives are expected to drive the market’s growth.
