Payment Mode (eWallet, Credit Card, Debit Card, Automatic Clearing House)
The credit card segment in the payment processing solutions market is estimated to gain the largest revenue share of 45.1% by the end of 2036 on account of the growing credit card ownership and usage.

This leads to a higher demand for efficient and reliable payment processing solutions that support the full array of card-related services. An ERP system with integrated credit card processing is a crucial tool for streamlining financial procedures and improving client experiences since it prevents data redundancy by sending data continuously via an integrated credit card payment processing solution, which can also automate regular billing, accept online payments, and let clients manage their accounts.

The travel and hospitality segment is projected to register a significant payment processing solutions market share of 40.5% during the projected timeframe, impelled by the rising rate of hotel occupancy across the globe.
