Payment card shipments will stagnate over the next five years, falling by 2% globally between 2024 and 2029 – research

13 august 2024

A new study from Juniper Research has found that spend on card technology by card issuers will rise significantly, from $9.8bn globally in 2024 to $13bn in 2029. This growth of 39% will be driven by banks and other card issuers attracting new customers with differentiated card types. By using premium options such as metal or wooden cards, banks can differentiate themselves in the highly congested banking market.

The research found that in an increasingly competitive banking market, card manufacturers must offer a broad range of solutions, which allow banks and other issuers to choose offerings that match their wider positioning and objectives.  


New Card Types Offsetting Impact of Slowing Shipments

The research found that payment card shipments will stagnate over the next five years, falling by 2% globally between 2024 and 2029. As levels of financial inclusion significantly rise, fewer new accounts are being opened; reducing organic growth. However, the advent of new card types will help to offset this. For example, metal cards are expected to see an increase in annual shipments of 178% over the next five years, reaching almost 200 million annually by 2029.

Research author Nick Maynard explained: „Banks need to create custom card programmes that can target specific user bases, in order to sustain their growth. For card manufacturers, this means both developing distinctive card offerings, and offering services such as modern card issuing platforms to provide a comprehensively effective user experience. If banks fail to introduce new offerings, they will rapidly lose out to more distinctive competitors.”
