In-car payments are set to soar. What banks need to know.
The payments industry is driving forward with plans to allow consumers to seamlessly pay for gas, parking, charging and more from their vehicles. Embedding payments within cars has been a slow go, with multiple fits and starts. Still, a 2021 study from Juniper Research predicted that global transaction volume of in-vehicle payments—made via vehicle systems as opposed to smartphones—will exceed 4.7 billion by 2026, up from 87 million in 2021. Switch Auto Insurance and Save Today! Great Rates and Award-Winning Service The Insurance Savings You Expect Affordable Auto Insurance, Customized for You With embedded and invisible payments becoming more ubiquitous, some industry professionals expect to see more use cases within the automotive industry. It's largely a question of timing, according to Chris Uriarte, partner at Glenbrook Partners. "We can all envision a future where you drive your car anywhere, and whether it's parking, charging, a McDonald's drive-through or a toll plaza, it just seamlessly works," Glenbook's Uriarte told American Banker. "I think it's just a question of getting the industry moving in the right direction together." Here's what banks need to know about where embedded payments in autos stand today and where the future could be headed: Major card manufacturers have enabled embedded payments Several manufacturers have rolled out embedded technology within their vehicles in the past few years. Others have been mulling how to best enable embedded payments for use cases that include fuel, parking, charging and payments at drive-throughs, Uriarte said. In 2023, Mercedes-Benz joined forces with Mastercard to introduce embedded in-car payments at the point of sale, allowing customers to use a fingerprint sensor in their car to make convenient and secure digital payments at more than 3,600 service stations in Germany. Mercedes' in-car payment service, which uses biometric technology for customer authentication, is available in Germany and several other European countries. The company is exploring options to expand to other markets, but has no specific time frame to introduce it in the U.S., according to a company spokesperson. The company is working on bringing seamless in-car payments to U.S. customers for on-street parking, though there's also no timeline for release of this feature, the spokesperson said.

(Mobile payments | American Banker) Also in 2023, Hyundai Motor America introduced Hyundai Pay, which allows customers to find and pay for services with their vehicle's touchscreen using securely stored credit card information. It started with parking payments and has since expanded to charging and fueling at participating stations, a spokesperson told American Banker. Hyundai Pay is now available on most of the company's models via an over-the-air update. Last year, BMW introduced in-car payments for parking fees and fuel at participating locations in Germany and announced vague plans to roll out these payment features in additional countries. Challenges persist Integrating with the various points of sale has proved challenging for auto manufacturers. At the moment, there's no centralized infrastructure or unified standards for doing this, Uriarte said. Another issue is that not all vehicles on the road today are connected to the Internet to allow seamless payments, though the market is moving in that direction. A 2023 study from Juniper Research predicted that the number of connected vehicles in service will reach 367 million globally in 2027. That's up from 192 million in 2023. Even so, it's still possible to buy cars that aren't connected, and some consumers even prefer that option for privacy reasons. "I think we still have a while to go on this," Uriarte said. Embedded payments are also a challenge for fleet managers of cars, trucks, vans and rental companies that operate under shared driving models because different people are driving the vehicles, said Brian Gaynor, vice president of product at BlueSnap, a payment processing company. That's where apps like Android Auto and Apple CarPlay offer potential. Whoever is driving the car shouldn't have to worry about payment, Gaynor told American Banker. Other up-and-coming payment options With the PACE Drive app, consumers in multiple European countries can compare fuel prices at participating stations in their vicinity, get alerted to exclusive deals and initiate contactless payments from their car. App manufacturers also have the potential to integrate with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for more seamless in-car payments, Gaynor said. Amazon Alexa users also have the option to pay for contactless refueling using voice commands. Chris Colson, payments expert for the Atlanta Fed who focuses on emerging payments, said he can pull up to a participating gas station, tell Alexa to pay for gas, confirm the pump location, and pay effortlessly. There are other options for seamless payments being rolled out. For example, last year, Metropolis Technologies, an artificial intelligence company that enables checkout-free payment experiences, bought parking network company, SP Plus Corporation. Its AI-recognition technology is now in use in more than 4,600 locations. Drivers enter their card information once, and are charged seamlessly on subsequent visits. "It's not just a manufacturer play in terms of embedded payments. There are other potential use cases here," Gaynor said. How banks can respond For embedded vehicle payments to become more pervasive, a coordinated effort is necessary between the manufacturers, the gas stations, charging stations and parking lot vendors, Gaynor said. "It's going to become an overall network." One concern for banks is the potential loss of card revenue if their card isn't top-of-wallet, or if consumers bypass the card network altogether, cutting out interchange fees. Consumers might opt, for example, to pay using the lower-cost real-time payment rails instead, Gaynor said. To better position themselves, banks need to understand how customers want to pay, the potential use cases within cars and also what might need to be done from a fraud and risk management perspective, Uriarte said. A large bank might consider partnering with an auto manufacturer on marketing and co-developing solutions, for example. "At the end of the day, this has to work with all banks and all cards," Uriarte told American Banker. Melden Sie sich an, um Ihr Portfolio aufzurufen.

Smart Traffic Management to Save 900m Tons of Emissions Globally by 2030, But Security Must Scale with Adoption
BASINGSTOKE, United Kingdom, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new study from Juniper Research, the foremost experts in IoT markets, has found the adoption of smart traffic management solutions will save up to 923 million metric tons (MMT) of CO2 by 2030. This is an increase of 151% on the 368 MMT CO2 savings forecast for this year. This substantial increase in CO2 saving represents 1.5% of 2030 global carbon emissions. Find out more: Smart Traffic Management Market 2025-2030, or download a free sample. Cybersecurity Remains a Key Concern To achieve these CO2 savings, Juniper Research believes it is essential security measures can scale alongside the growing number of sensors in smart traffic management solutions and the increasing volume of data generated. We have identified technologies specifically designed for high-end security in data-intensive and automated environments, such as data minimisation solutions and federated learning, as ideal for processing real-time information from smart traffic management solutions. Juniper Research finds the technologies that provide data anonymisation, particularly in the face of real-time decision making, will position smart traffic management vendors best to capitalise in a market expected to grow from $14.8 billion globally in 2025, to $32.7 billion in 2030. Integrating these technologies will enable vendors to analyse traffic data without compromising any personal data collected; enhancing public trust and reducing the risk of data breaches. Research author, Michelle Joynson, stated, 'As smart traffic management solutions continue to collect valuable personal data to optimise traffic flows, the threat of cyber-attacks is increasing. Smart traffic vendors must deploy robust security measures to ensure system reliability, continually enabling optimised traffic flows; leading to significant emission reductions and cost savings.' About the Research The research suite offers a comprehensive assessment of the smart traffic management market, including insightful market analysis and in-depth forecasts for 60+ countries. The dataset contains over 37,000 market statistics within a five-year period. It includes a 'Competitor Leaderboard' to examine the current and future market opportunities.
