Highlights
The Italian credit card market has positive potential for growth in the coming years ahead. Italians have historically be sceptical about revolving credit products. However growth in other forms of card based payments suggests consumers may finally be ready for a greater shift towards credit based card spending.
The Italian payment card market remains extremely fragmented, with a high number of small regional players. This is slowly shifting as the banking sector begins to consolidate, however the importance of regional branding and identity, suggests the market will remain largely splintered for the foreseeable future.
Italy has the world's most developed prepaid card sector, with prepaid cards being using over twice as often for online transactions than debit cards. Dominated by Poste Italiene, these cards act as a replacement for a full bank account in many instances. The sector is likely to see further growth as it targets more specific consumer segments.
