Demand for Payment Wristbands Market to Expand at an CAGR of 29% Through 2031

Wearable Payment Devices Market

To meet increased customer demand, several manufacturers, like Samsung Electronics and Apple Inc., are integrating payment technology into their wearable gadgets. In addition, the cost of installing NFC technology has decreased, which has aided industry expansion. Customers may have a secure purchasing experience with wearable payment gadgets because they are equipped with advanced technology.

According to a recent analysis published by Fact.MR, the global Payment Wristbands market is estimated to reach a worth of over US$ 15.6 billion by 2021, and will grow at a staggering CAGR of around 29 percent from 2021 to 2031.

In the last few years, wearable payment gadgets have seen significant growth. Several financial institutions and banks have begun exploiting the advantages of these electronic payment devices in order to extend their current customer base since the introduction of Host Card Emulation (HCE) and cashless payment methods. The rise of HCE can be related to an increase in demand for wearable payment devices, as HCE enables wearable devices to imitate cards on NFC-enabled devices without requiring access to an authorised element. Furthermore, due to their capabilities that allow a seamless transaction experience, NFC, RFID, and HCE technologies are key aspects of wearable and contactless payment devices.
