PROSPECTS

Consumers use credit cards to compensate for low disposable incomes

Consumers in Mexico experienced significant increases in prices, due to high inflation at the end of 2017 and in early 2018, whilst salaries remained flat. As a result, many consumers made efforts to maintain their same level of spending using credit cards – some to their maximum limit or even to the point where their debts exceeded their payment capacity.

Balance transfers could be a solution for credit card holders with growing debts

In Mexico, balance transfer is a service available only from a few commercial banks, including Santander, Banorte, Banregio and HSBC. Typically, people use personal lending to pay credit card debts; however, the interest rates of some of these banks are much more convenient and could be utilised by credit card holders to save considerable amounts of money.

Contactless cards and mobile payments are anticipated to see dynamic growth

The presence of contactless cards in Mexico is incipient, with a few players – such as BBVA Bancomer, HSBC and Banco Azteca – starting to offer a few credit cards with this feature. The use of new technologies is a way to attract younger consumers, who represent the bulk of the Mexican population.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

American Express launches its new image and a renewed platform in Mexico

American Express displayed its confidence in the consumer credit market in Mexico with an investment to renew its image and launch a digital platform in the country, with the aim of attracting mostly younger consumers, whilst also offering a new experience to its current customers. The campaign was launched with the slogan “Don’t Do Business / Don’t Live Life Without It,” and featured a modified version of the company’s logo to a shorter version with only four letters, AMEX, which reflects how most consumers already refer to and identify with the brand.

Banxico launches a comparative tool for credit cards

Due to the wide range of options in credit cards in Mexico, it has become increasingly difficult for consumers to choose the best credit card, and sometimes the information given can be confusing or intentionally misleading. In order to help consumers, Banxico enabled a new tool on its website that includes historical and current data about interest rates, annual fees and credit limits, to better demonstrate if its credit card products actually meet consumers’ needs and lifestyles.

Chilean company Falabella launches its first credit card in Mexico in a commercial alliance with the retailer Soriana

After the fusion of Soriana and Comercial Mexicana, Soriana entered into a commercial joint-venture with the Chilean company Falabella. As a result of the joint-venture, a credit card – operated by Mastercard – was launched that can be used in all the store brands of both companies (both retailers used to have their own credit cards with different banks and operators).
