What Consumers Want", report examines the consumer payments market in
Canada, considering payment cards, online payments, P2P payments, and newer
payment technologies such as mobile wallets and contactless. The report also
examines the main regulatory players overseeing the market.
Canada is a developed and highly competitive
payment card market-with pay-later and debit card penetration rates of 219.9
and 85.4 per 100 individuals in 2017. Canadian consumers are avid users of
payment cards, with frequency of use at 101.2 transactions per card. While
credit cards dominate in terms of spending, debit cards are more frequently
used at the POS, with this figure the highest among its peers. This is largely
a reflection of the continuing migration of low-value cash payments to payment
cards, as well as increased usage of contactless debit cards. Newer
technologies such as mobile wallets are also gaining traction in the country
with the launch of popular international payment solutions such as Apple Pay,
Samsung Pay, and Android Pay. In addition, widespread use of contactless
payments-backed by well-established contactless payment infrastructure-is
anticipated to further drive electronic payments in Canada.
