PROSPECTS

Contactless payment gains ground in debit cards

The striking development of contactless payment in France contributed to increasing debit card payments in both value and transaction terms. Based on near field communication technology, contactless payments offer greater convenience to consumers, especially as the ceiling on payments without authorisation was increased from EUR20 to EUR30 from October 2017.

Competition from mobile payments and e-currency

Competition from mobile payments and e-currency could be a threat to the use of debit cards over the forecast period. The rise of smartphones and the convenience of internet banking through electronic wallets are changing the way in which consumers approach payments.

The healthy economy positively impacts debit card payments

2017 was a positive year for household and consumer expenditure, which seem to have recovered from the last decade of sluggish growth. The low level of oil prices and interest rates in 2017 were the main factors influencing growth in consumer expenditure.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Competition fostered by EU regulations

On the operators’ side, the competitive landscape in debit cards is largely dominated by Groupement des Cartes Bancaires, which continued to enjoy a virtual monopoly. Indeed, the outright majority of debit cards are co-branded, meaning that Groupement des Cartes Bancaires operates domestic transactions, whilst the associated operator (Visa, Mastercard) deals with international operations for cards issued in France.

The leading player increases its investment

The leading player in debit cards, Groupement des Cartes Bancaires, enjoys a historical close relationship with merchants in France, and has lower costs compared with international competitors Visa and Mastercard. The domestic company reacted to regulation with subscription fee growth of 10% from its partners.

Online banking is changing the competitive landscape for issuers

Another major trend increasing the competition was the rising popularity of online banks which issue their own cards associated with a bank account. Online banks enjoy a competitive advantage over physical banks in terms of fixed and operational costs, which means they are capable of issuing cards free from annual fees and with generous sign-up bonuses.
