Report Outlook

The global face swiping payment market was valued at USD 5.04 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 19.4% during the forecast period. Use of facial recognition technology in payment systems is becoming increasingly popular as it offers a fast and secure way of making transactions. It includes facial 3D depth, blink detection, facial motion recognition, and bright pupil effect detection, are all designed to enhance the accuracy and security of facial recognition payments. Facial 3D depth technology enables the system to detect the depth of a person's face, which helps to prevent fraudulent attempts made with 2D images or masks. Blink detection and facial motion recognition can be used to ensure that the person making the payment is a living and active human being, rather than a static image or a video recording. The bright pupil effect detection feature is designed to identify if the person's pupils are reflecting light, which is a key indicator of a real person, rather than a photo or video recording.

Payment equipment segment holds the largest share in 2022

Payment equipment segment garnered the largest revenue share, and is expected to dominate over the study period. This is primarily due to growing popularity of cashier-fewer ordering kiosks in several fast-food restaurants. These kiosks are designed to streamline the ordering process, allowing customers to place their orders quickly and easily without the need for human interaction. Customers can browse menus, customize their orders, and pay using touchscreens, providing a fast and convenient way to order food. Cashier-less ordering kiosks not only improve the customer experience but also help to reduce wait times and increase efficiency for restaurants.

For instance, CaliBurger, have installed self-ordering kiosks with facial recognition technology and artificial intelligence to enhance their customer experience. These kiosks use facial recognition technology to identify customers, allowing them to place their orders quickly and easily without the need for physical interaction with restaurant staff. In addition, the use of artificial intelligence enables these kiosks to provide personalized recommendations to customers based on their previous orders and preferences.

Payment system segment projected to register robust growth over the study period. The deployment of payment systems with biometric sensors for face recognition within point of sale (POS) terminals is propelling the growth of the face-swiping payment segment. These systems enable customers to make payments quickly and easily by simply swiping their faces in front of the POS terminal, without the need for physical contact with payment devices or cards. The use of biometric sensors for face recognition ensures the security of transactions, making face-swiping payments more secure than traditional payment methods such as cards or cash.

Retail segment expected to witness higher growth rate

Many businesses, including restaurants, supermarkets, and transportation companies, have already implemented face-swiping payment systems, and the adoption of this technology is expected to continue to grow in the future.

Travel segment registered steady growth. Many travelers are now looking for contactless payment options that allow them to make payments quickly and easily without having to touch any surfaces or handle cash. As a result, many transportation companies, including airlines, buses, and trains, have started to offer touchless payment options such as face-swiping payments to their customers. These touchless payment options not only help to reduce the risk of infection but also provide a more convenient and efficient payment method for travelers.
