Schemes such as the payment of outstanding dues in equated monthly installments (EMIs) and additional facilities, such as access to premium services at hotels and airlines, including lounge access have escalated the total cards in circulation and the total transaction value within Asia.
- Numerous companies such as Amazon, MakeMyTrip, NUS Singapore, Manchester United, Ferrari, and others are offering co-branded credit cards that provide facilities such as low annual fees, gift vouchers on joining and lucrative cashback offers. The total transaction value within the Asia credit card market is expected to showcase a forecasted CAGR of 7.4% during 2018-2025.
- Trends such as environmental sustainability, sustainable procurement, and adoption of technologies such as IoT and artificial intelligence are expected to shape up the delivery of credit card products and services in the near future.
Credit card issuers and operators have also focused on strengthening acceptance infrastructure, promoting and incentivizing digital payments for the right target audience, and partnering with key technology players which will give a positive outlook for the future and hence it is expected that the number of transactions will have positive growth. Issuers and operators have firstly adopted and are encouraging the introduction of a QR code for low-value payments, contactless payments and payment gateways for processing M-commerce transactions through tokenization in most of the Asian countries.
Adoption of New Technologies: Most of the issuers launched a platform to facilitate single-click real-time payments from consumers to merchants via their respective bank accounts. Payments between accounts of different banks, enabled by a common real-time switch have created major opportunities for real-time payment apps such as Paytm, ApplePay, WeChat Pay and others. Many FinTech players can look at developing apps to support these payments in Asia while also developing similar systems in countries such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal. Sri Lanka’s issuance of a national standard for QR-based payments has further provided a boost to the QR revolution in the Indian sub-continent. This opens up a range of opportunities for banks and financial institutions to enable QR-based payment applications. The countries should also be open to setting up a regulatory sandbox for FinTech firms to test new as well as innovative products for greater financial inclusion.
