The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

An automated kiosk known as a ticket vending machine (TVM) is used to sell tickets for public transportation, including buses, subways and trams. In crowded areas like railway stations, airports, and downtown areas, TVMs are frequently observed. They offer a practical means for customers to buy tickets without having to stand in queue.

The market expansion is attributable to the rise in popularity of efficient and practical modes of transportation, such as train, bus, and subway stations. The market for ticket vending machines worldwide is expanding as a result of the increased acceptance of cashless payments. Due to its benefits like convenience and security, the non-cash payment type segment is anticipated to rule the worldwide ticket vending machines market throughout the forecast period. The size of the worldwide CPT market was estimated at $1,849. A ticket vending machine uses smart cards, cash, coins, or NFC technology to automatically print electronic or paper tickets. At airports, train stations, bus stops and tube stations, ticket vending machines produce fare tickets. This time-effective ticketing solution removes the need for lengthy lines at public transit hubs, making it an operationally efficient alternative to standard ticketing systems. Changes in urban commuter attitudes and greater acceptance of digital technology are the main factors propelling growth of the worldwide market for passenger ticket vending machines. Additionally, the demand for passenger ticket vending machines is directly impacted by the introduction of smart technology in the sphere of public transportation.

COVID-19 Impact

Driving Factors

"Rising demand for ticket vending machines as smart cards and contactless payments become more popular propel the market growth"

One of the key drivers behind the expansion of the worldwide ticket vending machine market is the rising use of contactless payment methods including credit cards, debit cards, and smartphone payment applications. Contactless payments also help to lower labor costs and promote more productive management, which furthers market expansion. Additionally, the government is making a significant contribution to fostering the expansion of digital payments by enacting a number of incentives. As a result, the increasing use of digital payments is considerably fueling the expansion of passenger vending machines that accept cashless payments. The use of a passenger ticket vending machine eliminates the need for cash payments and worries about linguistic barriers between drivers and passengers, enabling hassle-free smartcard payment. To facilitate speedier transactions, more efficient payment handling, and shorter processing times, helpful data is acquired each time a card is swiped and added right away to a database. Furthermore, it enables shops to effectively handle data and cope with massive quantities of transactions. Additionally, quicker transaction confirmation enables employees to swiftly produce fare tokens and tickets. The market is growing as a result of the passenger ticket vending machine's increased efficiency in fare box collection and commuters' convenience.

"Market's expansion is being supported by the rising popularity of automatic ticket machines with digital payment options"

To ease the high traffic at the ticket counters, influential firms are merging ATMs with digital payment systems. To obtain real-time customer data, they are also continuously introducing digital payment solutions. The unexpected increase in passengers using trains and aero planes all over the world has contributed to the surge in popularity of automated tickets produced by smart cards. E-tickets created using digital payment methods are also being widely used in the entertainment industry in nations like India, Hungary, South Africa, Malaysia, Indonesia, and others. This is due to the widespread adoption of touchscreen-based ticketing kiosks in the entertainment and gaming, public access point, and public transportation sectors. End users are now able to create paper tickets or electronic tickets. For instance, the Indian government introduced the "One Nation One Card" for transit mobility in March 2019. End users can use the card for retail transactions as well as for suburban train, metro, bus, and parking trips.

Restraining Factors

"Failure of the operational network is impeding market expansion"

Due to the enormous volume of daily travellers and a lack of security, the public transportation industry is having trouble finding funds to maintain computerized ticket machines. Additionally, as machines need a strong internet connection to do numerous tasks at once, the issue of network connectivity prevents their installation. Furthermore, the infrastructural facilities in retail outlets, multi-specialty hubs, and the transportation industry are put to the test by the abrupt failure of automated ticket machine units. The term "sudden breakdown" describes a loss of network connectivity and an outage brought on by incorrect use.
