The report has a chapter on Comparative Business Strategies for the largest four players. An example of the Comparative Business Strategies analysis would be -- How does Netflix's business strategy to expand its market share in the global online streaming compare to Amazon Prime's business strategy through its video products and services?
The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
Idemia, Thales, NEC, Fujitsu, and HID Global are among the ten major companies shaping the biometric card market through a mix of secure element integration, contactless biometric sensor development, and payment-industry partnerships. IDEMIA offers biometric payment solutions and identity platforms that embed fingerprint authentication into card and payment systems, positioning the company as a leader in card-based biometric payments. Thales provides digital identity and security products that integrate biometric authentication for payments and access control, leveraging its strength in secure credentialing and government-scale deployments. NEC supplies large-scale biometric systems and multimodal matching engines used in identity verification and payments, supporting card issuers and banks with enterprise-grade biometric back-ends. Fujitsu contributes palm-vein and facial recognition technologies and has focused on low-power biometric sensors suitable for secure payment devices and smartcards, complementing card OEM capabilities. HID Global delivers card technologies and secure credentials with biometric modules and middleware that bridge card hardware, biometric sensors, and issuer systems, making it a pivotal supplier in biometric card ecosystems.
Idex Biometrics, Fingerprint Cards (FPC), Goodix, Suprema, and Synaptics drive sensor innovation, thin-film integration, and certification-ready fingerprint modules tailored for payment cards and thin-form factors. Idex Biometrics specializes in ultra-thin fingerprint sensors and card-grade biometric authentication targeted specifically at contactless payment cards, working closely with card manufacturers and payment networks to meet PCI and EMV requirements. Fingerprint Cards (FPC) develops low-power capacitive sensors and matching algorithms optimized for smartcards and IoT devices, emphasizing miniaturization and reliable on-card processing. Goodix supplies integrated fingerprint sensor solutions and secure biometric algorithms used in mobile and wearable payments that transfer readily to card applications where power and size constraints are similar. Suprema provides fingerprint sensor modules and access-control platforms that have been adapted for secure credentialing in payment and identity cards, supported by on-device matching and tamper-resistant hardware. Synaptics, known for its sensor controllers and biometric authentication IP, offers component-level solutions that enable card vendors to incorporate reliable fingerprint capture and secure processing into payment form factors.
Thales, IDEMIA, Idex, FPC, and other leaders collaborate with banks, card manufacturers, and standards bodies to commercialize biometric cards through trials, certifications, and ecosystem partnerships that address security, privacy, and usability. Major players pursue EMV and payment-network certification, on-card template protection, and liveness/anti-spoofing measures to satisfy issuers and regulators while optimizing power consumption for contactless transactions. Strategic alliances with payment processors and pilot programs in Europe, Latin America, and APAC are expanding deployment, with suppliers offering turnkey card modules, middleware for secure biometric matching, and issuer integration services to ensure seamless enrollment, cryptographic signing, and offline authentication capabilities for contactless biometric payments.
