It is expected that more than 80% of the urban population in India will adopt digital payments as a part of their routine by 2022, and 70% of the retail chains will adopt the same. The reduced transaction charges and the degree of ease of cash transfers associated with the electronic fund transfers and mobile banking will further drive the growth of digital payment systems in India.

In 2016, Indian Government made a significant move, i.e. demonetization, to curb black money circulation within the country and to increase digital payment penetration. It is a phenomenal step made by India towards improving cashless economy, resulting in sharp increase of several digital payment channels in the country.
The market is segmented by digital payment system types and regions. The digital payment system types include mobile wallets, internet banking, mobile banking, PoS, and others. The regions covered in the report are urban and rural regions; currently, urban region segment holds the major market share followed by rural segment.
