PROSPECTS

Consumers use credit cards to pay for higher-ticket items

A credit card is used primarily to pay for electronics and appliances and other consumer goods as well as travel. It can be easier to buy higher-ticket products with a credit card, rather than carry a large amount of cash around, or the consumer may not have the funds for such items at the moment of purchase.

Growing confidence in credit cards

The number of credit cards in circulation continued to see healthy growth in Mexico in 2017. Nonetheless, there is still room in which to grow the number of credit cards due to the high unbanked population, primarily consisting of low-to-middle-income households.

Further growth for personal and commercial credit cards

Both commercial and personal credit cards continued to see growth in terms of the number of cards and transaction value in 2017. However, personal credit cards continue to dominate the category in volume and value terms in Mexico.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Grupo Financiero Inbursa gains ground after significant acquisition activity

Among issuers, Grupo Financiero Inbursa registered the highest growth rate in terms of the number of cards in 2016, followed by The Bank of Nova Scotia. Grupo Financiero Inbursa’s strong growth was attributed to its 2015 purchase of Banco Wal-Mart's credit card portfolio, but also by the expansion of its offices in the country.

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria remains the leading issuer

Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA Bancomer) remained the leading issuer in volume and value terms in 2016, followed by Citigroup. Citigroup gained share on the leader in terms of number of cards, but lost ground in terms of value share.

A wide range of marketing

The main advertising strategies for credit cards in Mexico tend to be direct phone calls to a home or cell number, mailing and, more recently, advertisements on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook. Marketing strategies for credit cards also feature exclusive promotions or cobranding activities.
