This report provides top-level market analysis, information and insights into the South African cards and payments industry, including -
- Current and forecast values for each market in the South African cards and payments industry, including debit, credit, and charge cards.
- Detailed insights into payment instruments including credit transfers, cash, cheques, direct debit, and payment cards. It also, includes an overview of the country's key alternative payment instruments.

- Analysis of various market drivers and regulations governing the South African cards and payments industry.
- Detailed analysis of strategies adopted by banks and other institutions to market debit, credit, and charge cards.

Scope
- Visa and Mastercard have introduced their own payment solutions to push electronic payments in the country. In July 2014, Mastercard launched the Masterpass digital wallet in South Africa, in association with Standard Bank. Masterpass users can shop online without giving payment and shipping information with every purchase. Meanwhile in September 2016 Visa launched Visa Checkout. The new service requires a username and password to make a payment, as opposed to credit card details and an expiry date for each transaction.
- Banks and regulatory bodies are implementing new technology to curb card fraud. In July 2016, the Payments Association of South Africa (PASA), in association with Visa and Mastercard, introduced a new specification for biometric authentication for card-based payments. The framework facilitates open interoperability solutions and allows a range of biometric solutions such as fingerprint, palm, voice, iris, and facial biometrics. Eventually all transactions will be biometric-authenticated, which includes confirmation of transactions through customers’ fingerprints. In line with this, Mastercard and Visa designed a framework for biometric authentication of transactions.
- To control growing consumer debt and payment defaults, the South African government amended the NCA in May 2014 to include new measures that card issuers need to follow while offering credit facilities. The measures were implemented from March 2015. Banks are now required to analyze customers’ income and take all monthly debt repayment obligations into account before offering credit facilities. However, the measures had little impact on the fast-growing credit card market, as consumers are increasingly using credit cards as a temporary source of disposable income. Low interest rates in comparison with personal loans, installment facilities, flexible repayment options, and long interest-free credit periods are some of the factors driving credit card growth.
