The declining prices of SIM cards, along with increasing requirements to migrate to EMV standards, are fueling the adoption of smart cards across the telecommunication, financial services, retail, and loyalty sectors. Moreover, with the growth of security threats and fraudulent activity, rise in demand for highly secure and expedited transactions, communication, and identification solutions from the telecommunications, healthcare, government, and transportation sectors is also contributing to the growth of the market.

Smart cards are classified based on components into memory-based smart cards and microcontrollers-based smart cards. Memory-based smart cards are powered by card readers and are mainly used in low-end and mid-end SIM cards. Microcontrollers-based card usage is driven by the added functionality such as security and intellectual data processing capabilities. Based on incorporation of the components, different smart card types are available in the market: contact smart cards, contactless smart cards, dual interface smart cards, and hybrid smart cards. Of these, contact smart cards are expected lose market share to contactless and other card types. Contactless smart cards provide a technology platform for the addition of new applications to access control systems and facilitate more secure identity verification for both physical and logical access. Additional security features provided by contactless and dual interface smart cards is driving their adoption in ATM/credit/debit cards and e-IDs, and transportation IDs among others. Contactless smart cards accounted for 18.6% of the total smart cards market revenue in 2014 and is expected to register the highest growth of 11.5% from 2016 to 2023.
