Consumer preference for cashless payment provides growth opportunities

Consumers are slowly moving away from cash and adopting other modes of payment such as cards and electronic fund transfers. While cash continues to be an important part of the payments system, it is increasingly being displaced by non-cash channels. The share of cash transactions fell during the review period. To capitalize on this, banks and other card issuers have been adopting various marketing and pricing strategies with the aim of encouraging customers to use card payments. Offers such as discounts, rewards points, increasing daily limits for cash withdrawals and insurance cover are common strategies that banks are employing. Growing consumer preference for cashless payments and the introduction of new card products are expected to increase the number of cards issued over the forecast period.

New government regulations to protect consumers and increase transparency

Through Bank of Canada and the Department of Finance, the Canadian government has been focusing on improving on infrastructure and legal support services to increase the efficiency of its payment systems and bring them in line with international standards. To achieve these objectives, the Department of Finance formed the Task Force for the Payments System Review in June 2010, with the objective of reviewing the Canadian payments system and providing recommendations. The Ministry of Finance implemented the Code of Conduct for the Debit and Credit Card Industry in Canada with the aim of protecting merchant and consumer interests. In addition, the government implemented a new set of regulations for the credit cards category which are intended to protect consumers by enhancing disclosure and increasing transparency. These new regulations, which came into force on January 1, 2010 and were amended on September 1, 2010, are expected to improve transparency.
