The Asia-Pacific near field communication (NFC) chips market is set to register a CAGR of 12.09% during the forecast period, 2022-2030. The market growth is mainly attributed to the advertising techniques of manufacturers, network operators, and governments to highlight the benefits of NFC technology.
South Korea, Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, Australia & New Zealand, China, Thailand, India, and Rest of Asia-Pacific are evaluated to assess the growth of the Asia-Pacific near field communication (NFC) chips market. The Thailand market benefits from the increasing uses and initiatives favoring digital and contactless payments across the country. In addition, public transport users make contactless payments for journeys on the bus, rail, and boat services across the capital with their EMV credit or debit card. The increased use of such payment methods is favorable for market growth.
Further, Vietnam has recorded the highest growth in mobile payments in the past few years. As a result, the need for NFC chips is continuously rising, directly influencing the market's growth. The government of Vietnam is also considering the use of contactless cards for various public transport services, which is expected to create prospects for NFC chips nationally.
Additionally, Australia has observed a significant increase in NFC mobile payments adoption. In 2020, 10.8% of Australians used Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, etc., up from 7.1% in 2019. Growing contactless payments in Australia also drives the country's near-field communication chip market. As per the Reserve Bank of Australia, the use of cards for lower-value payments has been assisted by the rapid adoption of contactless payments.
