Market Dynamics:

Smartphone penetrations are growing.

The combination of mobile devices, data, and the cloud has recently fueled an unprecedented rise of fast-growing MNCs with digital platforms. Klarna, a Swedish payments company, received $20 million in funding from fashion retailer H&M in October 2018 to develop an omnichannel payments service for H&M's physical and online stores. The agreement covers 'frictionless' in-store, mobile, and online payments, as well as a better delivery and return process and increased payment flexibility.

Retails and Corporate payments are increasing

The government's legislative attempts to promote payment solutions based on safe and real-time transactions, as well as an enhanced consumer experience for rapid and secure payment methods, are also important factors driving the market's growth.

These services aid in the reduction of infrastructure costs, the increase of total revenues, and the enhancement of performance. However, the worldwide payment service provider business is being hampered by an increase in cybercrime. The payment service provider is concentrating on providing more secure options.

North America is holding the largest share. In 2021, the United States will have the highest penetration of digital payment instruments, accounting for the majority of the region's share. In the United States, the most popular digital payment apps are Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Paypal. North America is home to the majority of the largest PaaS solution and service providers. A surge in the use of mobile wallets, which is speeding the expansion of PaaS, is one of the key factors driving PaaS solutions' growth in the region. For secure and real-time transactions, industries including retail and banking are increasingly using PaaS services.
