| Tiivistelmä: | Spending using credit cards more than doubled btw. 1988 and 1995. By debit card spending has more than quadrupled since 1990. At the end of 1995, almost 69 million several cards were in issue with card numbers almost equal at about 27 million. In 1995, 945 million transactions carried out compared to 400 million in 1985 by credit cards. Debit card transactions numbered over 1 billion (UK) compared with fewer than 200 000 in 1990 etc. The market is likely to see a continuation of the trend towards prompt settlement of credit card bills. As a result, interest payments will be minimised and the profitability of credit card operations will continue to be a key factor. The arrival of the smart card will offer a new range of facilities and will revolutionise card security. |
