PROSPECTS

Charge cards continues to have a limited presence in financial cards

Charge cards was the smallest category of financial cards with visible sales in Romania over the review period, recording a marginal share for both numbers of cards and transaction value. Charge cards largely consists of commercial cards, which continued to grow in value because of corporate needs for such products.

Personal cards presence is marginal

Although limited in numbers, commercial charge cards have found more opportunities to develop in a not very popular category. Personal charge cards remained negligible, with both a limited offer from issuers and limited interest from potential consumers up to this point.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Commercial charge cards ask for a specific approach and see reduced competition amongst issuers

Charge cards in Romania almost totally consist of commercial charge cards; personal charge cards have a negligible presence. As a result, the leading players use a business-to-business approach to grow and sustain their positions, using their sales force to engage directly with clients and promote the products, without deploying significant communication campaigns.

Strong competition from alternative products and exit of American Express

For corporate clients the benefits charge cards offered have been unchanged due to limited innovation and novelties. However, due to the strong competition generated by other competing products such as credit cards, and the limited interest of issuers in promoting charge cards at other products’ expense, charge cards have kept their marginal share.
