This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The optical character recognition (OCR) automated fare collection systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.42 billion in 2024 to $1.63 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to passenger convenience, interoperability and integration, and urbanization and traffic management.

The optical character recognition (OCR) automated fare collection systems market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.8 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to data-driven decision-making, smart city initiatives, and mobility as a service (MaaS) initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include enhanced biometric integration, seamless integration with mobility platforms, and personalized fare pricing.

The increasing demand for contactless payments is expected to drive the growth of the optical character recognition (OCR) automated fare collection systems market. Contactless payments involve transactions that use technology to securely complete payments without the need to physically swipe or insert a card into a point-of-sale terminal. This payment method is gaining popularity due to its convenience, as consumers prioritize touch-free transactions for hygiene and safety reasons. OCR-based automated fare collection systems can integrate with smart mobility solutions and digital platforms, providing added services and functionality. These systems offer users convenience and speed, enabling quick and easy fare payments without physical contact or cash transactions. For example, in November 2023, the European Central Bank, based in Germany, reported that in the second half of 2022, 53.8% of all card-based payments in the euro area were contactless. In 13 out of the 19 euro area countries, more than half of all card payments were made using contactless technology, reflecting strong demand for this payment method. As a result, the growing demand for contactless payments is fueling the growth of OCR-based automated fare collection systems.

Businesses operating in the OCR automated fare collection systems sector prioritize the integration of smart card technology to streamline user experiences in public transportation. Leveraging intelligent card technology, these systems enable seamless fare payment and ticket validation, offering commuters an efficient means of accessing transportation services. For example, in August 2023, Datamatics collaborated with the Memphis Area Transit Authority (MATA) to introduce the GO901 Smart Card System, enhancing travel experiences in Memphis, USA. Through this collaboration, Datamatics successfully integrated its AFC platform into the GO901 Smart card solution, enabling commuters to make effortless ticket purchases and travel contactless. Moreover, Datamatics strategically deployed commuter-centric kiosks across the city to facilitate convenient card top-ups.

In March 2022, Modaxo Inc., a Canadian technology firm, completed the acquisition of Pcentra Ltd., an Israel-based provider of OCR-automated fare collection systems. This strategic move aims to bolster Modaxo's presence in the smart ticketing market and expand its portfolio in the transportation technology sector. The acquisition provides Modaxo with access to advanced cloud-based smart ticketing technology, enhancing its ability to deliver secure and convenient ticketing solutions for public transport passengers. Through this acquisition, Modaxo reinforces its commitment to innovation and customer-centric service offerings.
