At the end of 2007 there were 47 million general purpose payment cards in issue in the Australian market. Credit cards are the fastest growing card segment and recorded an average annual growth rate of 7.1% between 2003 and 2007. Debit cards recorded a 3% growth rate for the same period, while the charge card market grew by 3.8%.
In terms of card issuer market share, the Commonwealth Bank is the leading issuer of debit and credit cards when measured by cards in issue. However, Westpac is the leading player in terms of credit card balances outstanding.
