Introduction of the Contactless Payment Market 

Contactless payment is a secure method of completing transactions using radio-frequency identification (RFID) or near-field communication (NFC) technology. It enables users to make payments by tapping or waving their cards or devices near a compatible terminal. The contactless payment market is witnessing substantial growth, fueled by a surge in consumer interest in digitization. With the convenience of tap-and-go transactions using NFC technology, contactless payments have become integral to modern payment ecosystems. This growth is further accelerated by the widespread adoption of mobile wallets and the increasing emphasis on hygiene amid the COVID-19 pandemic. As consumers seek faster and safer transactions, the contactless payment market is poised to expand, driven by the ongoing digitization trend.

For instance, in December 2021, Visa Inc. introduced India's roadmap to strengthen payment security. This program aims to secure India's dynamic digital payments ecosystem from emerging threats and cyberattacks.
