Near field communication (NFC) is a set of communication protocols that enable two electronic devices, typically mobile devices, to exchange data over short distances, typically within 4 cm (1.5 inches). NFC is a subset of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, and it operates in the high frequency (HF) 13.56 MHz band. While technology may seem relatively simple, its applications, adoption, and innovations have made it a cornerstone of modern connectivity, especially in consumer electronics, healthcare, retail, and more.
NFC's broad applicability stems from its simplicity, speed, and ability to securely transmit small amounts of data. One of the most common uses of NFC technology is in mobile payments. NFC-enabled smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches allow users to make secure payments by simply tapping their devices against an NFC payment terminal. Popular digital wallets like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay leverage NFC technology to facilitate contactless transactions, ensuring that users can quickly and securely pay for goods and services.
In Mexico, the retail sector is experiencing significant growth, with an estimated revenue of USD 76 billion in 2023. This increase in revenue underscores the expanding retail landscape, which is seeing greater adoption of digital technologies, including NFC, to improve customer experiences and streamline operations. Retailers in Mexico are increasingly adopting NFC-enabled point-of-sale systems to facilitate faster, secure, and contactless payments. The proliferation of NFC-enabled devices, such as mobile phones and smartcards, enhances the convenience and security of transactions, aligning with the growing demand for digital payment solutions. Furthermore, NFC can support other retail applications, such as loyalty programs, inventory tracking, and customer engagement, driving further adoption of NFC technologies in Mexico's dynamic retail environment. Hence, the rising electronics industry and expansion of the region's retail sector are driving the market's growth.
