Social gifting is on the verge of becoming a popular trend among young tech-savvy customer base which could drive money transfer through mobile wallets, especially on festive occasions in near uture.

India PoS terminal market was heavily dependent up on the card acceptance infrastructure consisting of ATMs and PoS terminal devices. In terms of number of device installations, metro cities were witnessed to dominate India PoS terminal market majorly due to higher usage and penetration of debit and credit cards in these cities whereas, non-metro cities were observed to catch up by spreading awareness regarding PoS devices enabled with Aadhaar enabled Payment System (AePS) in rural India.

Introduction of QR code bases system and NFC payment technology is further expected to give a boost to the country's PoS terminal market over long term.
