The global electronics industry is facing significant volatility in the pricing and availability of memory components. Ingenico is closely monitoring these trends and taking action to ensure continuity and transparency for our customers.

Market Conditions

Memory supply is tightening due to industrywide constraints and increasing prioritization of server and AI applications. Analysts anticipate that these pressures may continue into 2027.

This environment has triggered notable price increases:

  • DRAM: +40–50% in 2025; an additional +50–60% expected for 2026
  • NAND Flash: +15–20% in 2025; +30–40% expected for 2026

How Ingenico Is Responding

To protect supply continuity for our payment solutions, we have secured safety inventories and component allocations with our suppliers, and we qualify alternative memory sources at a fast pace where feasible. However, some product configurations, especially those with uncommon specifications or higher memory requirements, may experience longer lead times.

Our Tetra product lines are not expected to be impacted, as they use different memory technology.

Potential Impact on Product Pricing

As global memory costs continue to evolve, certain Ingenico devices and configurations will be subject to price adjustments aligned with market conditions. We will try to minimize the impact, and we remain committed to transparency. We will communicate any memory surcharges or pricing updates in advance, consistent with our established commercial practices.

Our Commitment

Ingenico remains dedicated to delivering secure, reliable, and high-performance payment solutions. Our teams are closely monitoring market developments and working diligently to minimize customer impact throughout this industrywide challenge.

For questions related to specific product references, memory configurations, or forecast planning, your designated Ingenico representative is available to support you.
