The electronic taximeters market in the Philippines was valued at around PHP 2 billion in 2018 with a CAGR of 8. 1% during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the rising technology adoption by users along with increasing production of electronic taximeters which cater specifically to local regulations. The major drivers behind this growth include higher safety standards which are being implemented on public transport vehicles; convenience offered by digital payment methods like Bluetooth payments; and improved efficiency while handling multiple trips simultaneously through GPS tracking features that have been incorporated into these devices.
The electronic taximeters market`s growth could be linked to the transportation and ride-hailing sectors. As the demand for taxi and ride-hailing services increases, there might be a corresponding need for accurate and reliable electronic taximeters for fare calculation and tracking.
The electronic taximeters market is expected to flourish with the modernization of the transportation sector. Nevertheless, issues such as ensuring accurate fare calculation, preventing tampering or fraud, and addressing potential privacy concerns related to data collection are significant challenges that need to be addressed for the successful adoption of these devices.
The pandemic`s impact on this market could be multifaceted. While reduced travel demand might have affected taxicab services, there could have been increased interest in contactless payment solutions during the pandemic. As travel restrictions ease and transportation services recover, the electronic taximeters market is expected to rebound, potentially benefitting from trends favoring cashless transactions.
Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA), Cordilera Traffic Management Group, and Land Transportation Office (LTO). These are some major players operating in the market.
