DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Smart Card IC Market by Application, Microprocessor Architecture, and Geography - Global Forecast and Analysis 2019-2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Growing demand for contactless smart cards
Contactless smart cards consist of a chip and an antenna which are composed of sensors that are packaged in standard PVC cards. The demand for contactless cards is increasing due to its speed, ease of use, and versatility. It is mostly used in applications such as public transport for payments, cashless vending and e-passports, and other secure travel documents.
This growing demand for contactless smart cards will lead to the expansion of the global smart card IC market at a CAGR of over 8% during the forecast period.
Integration of smart cards with blockchain
Blockchain technology is a digital ledger, which is connected by a list of blocks that store data on a cryptographically secured and decentralized distributed network. The integration of the blockchain with smartcards helps in embedding standard security requirements for storing, generating, and managing the user cryptographic keys in smart card ICs.
This development is expected to have a positive impact on the overall market growth.
Market Dynamics
The report looks at factors such as growing demand for electronic ID cards, growing demand for contactless smartcards, and compliance with regulatory requirements. However, uncertainties in the growing use of mobile wallets, the threat to data security, and price wars due to increase in competition may hamper the growth of the smart card IC industry over the forecast period.
