Payments in China 2017

(EstateNewsWire.com, January 04, 2018 ) "Payments in China 2017: What Consumers Want", report examines the consumer payments market in China, 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.

China is the world's largest payment card market in terms of transaction value, accounting for $13.3tn in 2017. This is followed by the US ($6.9tn), the UK ($1.1tn), Germany ($715bn), and France ($709bn). Cash, however, remains a popular payment instrument among Chinese consumers, especially in rural areas, accounting for 63% of the total payment transaction volume in 2017. One of the primary reasons for the dominance of cash is a consumer preference to keep track of their day-to-day spending. The government and banks have begun to provide basic financial access to the unbanked population by expanding banking infrastructure, launching new branches, and making efforts to change consumer payment habits. As a result, payment cards are gradually becoming more accepted, with their use consequently growing during the review period (2013-17e).
