Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio's Hardware team said; The global increase in cyber threats has led vendors to incorporate advanced security standards in their point of sale (POS) systems. Vendors are incorporating several security technologies such as signature-capturing devices and biometric sensors into the POS systems to secure payment transactions. Furthermore, POS devices are being incorporated with additional features such as touch screens, radio frequency identification, and bar code scanners to enhance the user's experience.
According to the report, the growing demand for contactless payment using mobile phones is expected to increase the demand for POS hardware.
