Abstract

The Canadian payments industry is evolving rapidly. Electronic payments dominate, and there is increasing substitution between different payment channels. Cash is still used extensively, as are cheques, but debit and credit cards have had meteoric successes in Canada, with both still averaging double digit growth rates in transaction volumes over the past five years. And within the debit and credit card payment spaces new segments have emerged, either based on consumer behaviour—for example, cross-border transactions and online payments—or based on new technologies such as contactless and mobile payments.

Market summary
  • In 2009, cutbacks in consumer expenditure will see the growth in the value and volume of debit and credit card transactions decrease compared with previous years.
  • Credit card payments will be hit the hardest by the recession, but by 2013 they will account for 38% of personal expenditure on consumer goods and services, approximately double the share forecast for debit card payments.
  • Cross border payments will grow by 70% per year over the next five years with new players expected to make an entry into the Canadian market.
  • Contactless payments based on credit cards represents the highest growth segment of consumer payments over the next five years, exhibiting triple-digit percentage growth and encroaching on areas currently dominated by cash and debit cards. Card issuers will use the EMV implementation card reissue cycle to issue cards with contactless payment functionality.
  • Growth in alternative online payments will be approximately double the growth in online credit card payments over the next five years.
