Early Findings
We were mainly able to find the top global players for the Point of Sale Market, however, a breakdown for their market share in the North American and European market, was not publicly available.
In 2016, the global POS terminal market (hardware) was estimated to be
$54.6 B
. The largest region being North America with over
US$17 B
in revenue.
In North America, newer merchants prefer cloud-based POS
(62%)
to on-premise systems
(38%)
.
The point-of-sale (POS) terminals market is classified into
fixed and mobile POS
(mPOS) terminals. "
Fixed terminals
are traditional PC/ monitor POS systems installed on counters or reception areas. On the other hand,
mPOS
are more convenient, chargeable, and low-cost products and can also perform various functions such as financial transactions, data analysis, and inventory management."
"The mPOS terminals segment is estimated to grow at a CAGR of
12.8%
from 2020 to 2027.
mPOS systems are preferred
over traditional systems owing to advantages such as paper-free receipt services, enhanced security, free floor space, and reduced customer wait time."
Small and medium-sized
businesses (SMBs) are more inclined to invest in
mPOS systems
due to its flexibility, scalability, and low installation costs. Mobile POS terminals also enable small businesses to carry out
advanced functionalities
such as inventory management, store management, and analytics to improve business operations.
"According to Statista, the transaction value of USA mobile POS payments in 2018 will be
US$64 B
. They estimate growth at
32.0%
per year."
North America
"The North America market was valued at USD
2.4 billion
and also held the largest share of the overall market in 2019."
"The growing number of payment technologies, such as
Near-field Communication
(NFC) and contactless payments has favorably impacted the North America market growth."
