Credit card figures in Slovenia reached over 55,000 in 2023, a significant decrease compared to previous years. On the other hand, debit cards were more common in the country, as that year there were around 2.79 million. The numbers provided are estimates, based on the figures central banks have to supply. Owning a payment card does not immediately indicate it gets used, as there are significant differences within Europe when it comes to the use of certain payment methods.

Figures were first released in November 2023, and have about a year delay due to calculations
Supplementary notes
Until November 2023, all figures on credit cards and debit cards from the European Central Bank were estimates based on certain criteria. Typically, it meant the figures were about "cards with a credit function" or "card with a debit function". From 2023 onwards, the ECB started reporting figures specifically covering "credit cards" and "debit cards". That said, numbers can differ between the years as domestic definitions and recording methods changed.
