Global Smart Ticketing Market Getting on to the Magnanimous Mode at USD 15.0 billion in 2027

A recent study conducted by the strategic consulting and market research firm; BlueWeave Consulting revealed that the global smart ticketing market was worth USD 6.57 billion in the year 2020. The study reveals that the market is projected to grow at the CAGR of 12.4% during 2021-2027 (forecast period), earning revenue of around USD 15.0 billion by the end of 2027. The smart ticketing market is gaining momentum due to the integration of advanced technologies such as contactless cards, and technology-enabled transit systems in smart ticketing systems. The increased use of cashless transactions by smart ticketing has provided a diverse payment option to the customers, leading to increased customer adoption of this market.

Additionally, the growth of the global smart ticketing market can be attributed to the increasing demand for smart ticketing industries from various industries, such as tourism, entertainment, and sports. The big spike in the intelligent transportation industry is also driving the growth of the smart ticketing market worldwide. For example, Brescia Mobilità, which oversees public transportation in Brescia and the surrounding regions, is collaborating with services and solutions provider Conduent Transportation to implement a contactless payment platform on its bus fleet. The system will be operational on all 220 buses that serve the Italian city and 14 nearby municipalities. Brescia Mobilità is an incredible example of how public transportation networks are rapidly modernizing by using technology to provide smooth, user-centric services that improve the transit experience.

However, the high cost of set-ups, data security, and the need for a centralized network for smart ticketing services are some of the roadblocks to the market's growth. To overcome the security issues, key players in the smart ticketing market are incorporating blockchain technology, digital sensors, and artificial intelligence (AI) into smart ticketing services.

Technological advancements Driving the Smart Technology Market Worldwide

Integration of smart technologies in the smart ticketing market has diversified the range of services it provides to the consumers. Technologies such as contactless smart cards, virtual reality (VR), maps, wearable devices, smartphones, and AI are being increasingly incorporated into smart ticketing. Rising smart technology integration has resulted in substantial economic growth for countries such as India, Singapore, China, and the UAE. Additionally, bolstering the implementation of smart ticketing systems stimulates the transportation industry, which in turn benefits the tourism industries of Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Increasing demand for smart ticketing systems Propelling Market Growth

Smart ticketing services are utilized in a variety of industries, including sports, entertainment, transport, parking, healthcare, and the banking, financial services & insurance sector (BFSI).  These services are being preferred in various avenues due to the easy management of data transactions and the convenience of cashless transactions. Among all, the transport industry has the greatest demand for smart ticketing. It provides the consumers with the option of advanced booking, secure data collection, time reduction, and a range of payment options. The majority of sports events that are being organized around the globe utilize smart ticketing on their booking platforms. Technologies such as QR code, NFC, RFID, and others have upgraded the services and increased their application in many industries, thereby propelling the growth of the Global Smart Ticketing Market.

The E-ticket segment holds  the largest share of the Smart Ticketing Market

Based on product type, the smart ticketing market has been categorized into the ticket machine, e-ticket, e-kiosk, request tracker, and others. Among these, the e-ticket segment holds the largest market share. This can be attributed to the widespread use of e-tickets in sports events, transit systems, and movie ticket bookings. The security provided by e-tickets over paper tickets is their unique selling point. Additionally, increased use of smartphones, availability of services on mobile apps, and ease of cashless transactions have increased the demand for the e-ticket segment. However, the e-kiosk segment is also expected to grow during the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19 on Smart Ticketing Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the transport industry across the globe. Since COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, there has been a major decline in transportation activities around the world due to travel restrictions imposed by the governments of different countries.  The sharp drop in ridership since the nationwide lockdowns has placed public transportation networks across the globe in severe financial jeopardy. Business growth has also been hampered due to the lack of investments by financially affected manufacturers and reduced government initiatives. However, smart ticketing is still the most preferred mode of billing/booking as it provides a contactless payment option.

Europe Leads the Smart Ticketing Market

The smart ticketing market is categorized into North America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa, wherein Europe accounts for the largest share in the global smart ticketing market. Europe is the center of the world's most prestigious travel and sporting activities. Moreover, these two industries are major end-users for the smart ticketing market. The smart ticketing market in Europe is also thriving because of large sports events in Germany and increasing tourism in Paris (France) that utilizes the services of smart ticketing widely. These are the primary factors contributing to the growth of the smart ticketing market in this region.

However, the Asia-Pacific region is also likely to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. The region is expected to register a CAGR of 14% in the forecast period. Several emerging economies, such as India, are growing their efforts to promote the digitalization of money, which is driving the growth of the smart ticketing market. For example, the Indian government launched the Digital India Program to digitalize payment methods across the country. Such initiatives combined with the surge in the use of smartphones in this country have led the majority of the population to adopt smart ticketing services for ticket booking/billings and smart cards.

Smart Ticketing Market Competitive Landscape

The smart ticketing market is moderately fragmented and is witnessing the entry of new players with favorable government initiatives. The key players dominating the smart ticketing market are HID Global Corporation, Thales Digital Identity, and Security, NXP Semiconductors N.V., Giesecke & Devrient GmbH, Infineon Technologies AG, CPI Card Group Inc, Inside Secure, Xerox Corporation, Cubic Corporation, Atsuke, Cammax Limited, Conduent Inc., and other prominent players. In order to increase their customer base, players are investing in product developments and joint ventures.

Xiaomi is launching five new products in time for the holidays

Even though Xiaomi is one of the largest phone manufacturers in the world, many people still aren’t familiar with them. Furthermore, of the people who know the name, many don’t know just how vast its product catalog is. The company makes hundreds, if not thousands of products. You can get everything from a Xiaomi branded garden soil monitor to a sonic toothbrush. 

Editor’s Pick

Xiaomi Mi A1 review: the perfect budget phone?

Introduced in 2014, Google’s Android One program never quite took off the way the company had envisioned. The program focused on developing markets like India and aimed to deliver budget smartphones with a stock Android …

One of the reasons that people aren’t that familiar with the company is that it just doesn’t sell a lot of products here in the states. You can’t officially buy almost any of its phones, and even if you do import one, there’s a good chance it’s missing the LTE bands you need. But, Xiaomi is starting to make inroads in the US, albeit slowly and with little fanfare. 

Xiaomi has been selling its products through its Mi store here in the US with the Mi Box, a 4K streaming box, popping up at Walmart as well. Its fitness tracker, the Mi Band, has also proven popular among those who want to count their steps, but don’t want to pay Fitbit prices to do it. 

It looks like the company is going to beef up its product portfolio in the states right before the holiday season. Five new products have shown up on Amazon. These include a 360-degree Mi Sphere Camera, a Mi Robot builder kit, a battery bank, a pair of headphones, and a pair of earbuds. 

Xiaomi Mi Sphere Camera

The Mi Sphere Camera is the most expensive of the bunch at $299.99. It records 360-degree panoramas at 23.88 MP. That means you can record in up to 3.5K, or just shy of what your 4K TV can display. The camera supports two shooting modes, 2304 x 1152 at 60 fps or 3456 x 1728 at 30 fps. Its IP67 rated for dust and water resistance and has six-axis stabilization. 

get it at amazon

  Xiaomi Mi Robot

As soon as I saw this, it immediately went on my Christmas list. The Mi Robot Builder Kit lets you build one of three different robots from a 978 part kit. The fun doesn’t stop there. You then download an app on your phone and program the robot! Its self-balancing includes high-capacity batteries so the fun won’t stop anytime soon.

  Xiaomi Headphones

Xiaomi is selling two different types of headphones- over-the-ear and in-ear earbuds. The Xiaomi Mi Headphones are the over-the-ear headphones and will run you $130. Xiaomi says they are “crafted with the new graphene material to provide high-performance audio” and a “passive radiator provides fully immersive Hi-Fi experience and powerful bass”.

get it at amazon

  The Xiaomi Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro will run you $25 when they’re released November 24. We reviewed these earbuds before and found them sound pretty good. For the price, you really can’t beat these guys for in-ear headphones. 

get it at amazon

Xiaomi Power Bank Pro 

It’d be great if we lived in a world of phones with week-long battery life, but sadly, we don’t. If you’re going to grab a battery bank, you want the biggest capacity for the cheapest price and that’s what the Xiaomi Power Bank Pro tries to deliver. It must do a pretty decent job because it is already sold out and temporarily out of stock. If you want to be the next in line, hit the button below and order yours now and they’ll deliver it when it becomes available again. 

get it at amazon

It’s nice to see Xiaomi offer some more products here in the states. Maybe one day it’ll let us buy its kettles, suitcases, or phones.

India Smartphone market exits 2018 with highest ever shipments of 142.3 million

As per IDC's Asia/Pacific Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker, India smartphone market shipped 142.3 million units in 2018, registering a healthy 14.5% year-on-year (YoY) growth as compared to 2017. After a strong quarter of 2018Q3, the smartphone market saw a sequential decline of 15.1% in 2018Q4 owing to high channel inventory, but saw a healthy annual growth of 19.5%, driven primarily by multiple rounds of sales by e-tailers beyond the festive Diwali period lasting into December. Upasana Joshi, Associate Research Manager, Client Devices, IDC India, said, "Amongst the big highlights of 2018 were the online-focused brands that drove the share of the online channel to an all-time high of 38.4% in 2018 and a whopping 42.2% in 2018Q4. This was primarily driven by several rounds of discounts by e-tailers driving affordability through various financing options, cashback offers and buyback schemes. Shipments of the online-exclusive portfolios of Xiaomi, Honor, Realme, Asus, OnePlus etc., further fueled this growth, resulting in a year-on-year growth of 47.3% in 4Q18 for the online channel." However, the offline channel had a rather muted year with a modest 6.7% annual growth in 2018 and growing 5.0% sequentially in 2018Q4. The offline channel was unable to keep pace with the deep discounts and go-to-market initiatives from the e-tailers almost throughout the year. Having said that, offline remains the largest channel for mobile phone distribution in India and is crucial for the long-term success for any brand in India. With the government initiative to push local manufacturing in India, 2018 witnessed further duty hikes on mobile phone components, coupled with weakened rupee further added to the challenges of the long tail of brands outside the Top 5. The overall smartphone average selling price remained flat in 2018 at US$158, with high shipments in the mass segment of US$100-US$200 which accounted for more than half of the smartphone market in India. Commenting on the price segment trends, Joshi further adds, "The premium end of the market (above US$500) outgrew all other price segments in 2018 with 43.9% YoY growth, although it still constitutes a meager 3% share of the overall smartphone market. OnePlus emerged as the leader in US$500-US$700 segment on the back of the OnePlus 6 and the newly-launched OnePlus 6T. However, in the super premium segment of US$700+, Samsung surpassed Apple for the top position with its Galaxy S9 series." adds Joshi. The feature phone market, which makes up 56.0% of the total mobile phone market clocked 181.3 million-unit shipments in 2018, with 10.6% YoY growth. This was primarily driven by Jio Phone shipments through the year, contributing to 36.1% of overall feature phone shipments. The 2G/2.5G market declined by 23.0% YoY in 2018 owing to high demand for 4G enabled feature phones in the market.

Top 5 smartphone vendor highlights

Xiaomi continued to dominate, growing YoY by 28.6% in 2018Q4 on back of its affordable Redmi series devices aided by high decibel marketing campaigns and offline expansion with its Mi preferred partner program and opening of rural stores.  Xiaomi's Redmi 5A and Redmi Note 5/Pro series emerged as the fastest selling devices of 2018 across brands driving 10 million shipments each in the entire year. The brand continued to lead in the online channel with a share of 47.2%, climbing to the second slot in the offline channel by surpassing Vivo in 2018Q4. Samsung remained in the second position, however with a YoY decline of 7.9% in 2018Q4. The newly-launched Galaxy A7 (2018) with triple cameras picked up demand in 2018Q4 followed by its Android Go model, the Galaxy J2 Core. The brand is expected to make a comeback with its new online exclusive "M series" to be made available in February'19 via flash sales. Vivo continued at 3rd position with high YoY growth of 79.6% in 2018Q4. Its affordable models - namely Y81 and Y71 - continued to generate maximum demand along with the flagship range of V11 and V11 Pro series. The brand continued to invest heavily in marketing and promotional activities and offering lucrative channel margins. Realme entered the top 5 vendor list at 4th position on the back of its affordable and aggressively priced Realme 2 and Realme 2 Pro series. The brand also moved from the fourth position in 2018Q3 to the second position in the online space with a share of 17.3% in 4Q18. The brand plans to extend its footprint into offline channel initially through Large Format Retail Stores like Reliance Digital and gradually scale up to traditional brick and mortar stores. OPPO continued at 5th position, with high YoY growth of 71.7% in 2018Q4. The brand's "A series" with models like the A3s and A83 generated middling demand. However, it continues to face stiff competition from Vivo in the offline channel owing to lower channel incentives and consumer schemes. @Technuter.com News Service Read the full article
