However, multicurrency payment methods and increasing threat of data thefts/hackers/viruses are some of the major challenges that hamper the growth of the smart cards market.
The main issue occurs with embedded chips because all data and passwords are stored in them. Another method of hindering the data on embedded chips is by heating these chips at a high temperature or exposing them to UV light. This helps remove their security lock. In this manner, any person can steal the data of a cardholder, which is a significant concern.
Nowadays, consumers are more focused on using different types of cards, i.e. contact and contactless smart cards. Contact smart cards offer one-touch payment options to consumers, whereas contactless smart cards communicate through NFC or radio-like cell phones. Contactless smart cards are more secure and advanced than contact smart cards. Contactless smart cards consists of small sophisticated computer-type chips located inside the card, which delivers high-level security to protect identity, privacy, and the financial information of consumers.
