Global Smart Card Market Expected to Grow at 3.8% CAGR, Reaching New Heights by 2030

The global smart card market, valued at USD 14.50 billion in 2022, is projected to grow steadily at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% over the forecast period. This growth is fueled by rising demand for secure payment methods, rapid technological advancements, and increasing adoption in sectors such as healthcare, transportation, and banking.

One of the main drivers behind this growth is the need for enhanced payment security amid increasing sophistication of malware and cyber threats. With the rise in online transactions, consumers are seeking safer payment options, and smart cards-equipped with encrypted chips and secure software-are offering a reliable solution to protect financial and personal information. These cards are widely used for credit card transactions, public transportation, and access control, making them a versatile alternative to traditional payment methods.

In healthcare, the growing use of telemedicine is contributing to increased demand for smart cards. They enable patients to access medical services securely and conveniently, even from remote locations. For instance, in Belgium, patients are issued smart cards containing their personal health information and medications, allowing healthcare professionals quick and secure access to critical data.

Another significant growth factor is the widespread adoption of Europay, MasterCard, and Visa (EMV) chip cards. As of 2021, over 12 billion EMV cards are in circulation globally, providing a secure foundation for the transition to digital payments. The shift is particularly strong in Europe, where 99% of transactions are EMV-enabled, followed by high adoption rates in the Middle East & Africa, Canada, Latin America, and Asia Pacific (82%), and the U.S. (81%). Notably, the U.S. saw the largest year-on-year increase in EMV transactions, rising by 81% in 2021 compared to 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic also played a role in accelerating smart card innovations, with the introduction of Wi-Fi-enabled smart cards and other contactless solutions to meet growing hygiene and convenience needs.

As industries and consumers continue to prioritize secure, efficient, and contactless payment solutions, the smart card market is expected to maintain its growth trajectory in the coming years.
