Financial cards and payments in 2024: The big picture
Financial card and payment transactions in Turkey continued to witness steady growth in 2024. Card spending strengthened as consumers switched away from cash amid greater dependability on credit cards due to rising living costs.
2024 key trends
In 2024, the financial cards and payments landscape in Turkey witnessed a marked acceleration in the adoption of digital wallets and mobile payments. The ubiquity of smartphones and the convenience of having a “bank in your pocket” have increasingly made digital wallets a popular choice among consumers.
E-commerce growth boosts credit card transaction
In the year 2024 Turkish consumers shifted towards buying cheaper products online due to lower purchasing power and high inflation. The availability of regular discounts, a wider range of sizes and brands, and comparable prices has sparked further consumer interest in online shopping.
Competitive landscape
The competitive landscape in financial cards and payments is in a state of flux in Turkey. Mastercard's investments in Turkey have increased over the review period, with the country now at the centre of its Eastern European operations.
What next for financial cards and payments?
Credit card growth is expected to outpace debit cards over the forecast period, primarily due to consumers' increasing reliance on credit. The new credit card regulations introduced in 2024 aim to ensure that credit card users in Turkey are part of a more secure, transparent, and sustainable financial system.
