Europe: USD credit card value by country 2000-2020

France's credit card transaction volume - performed with domestically issued cards only - was as high as that of Sweden and Poland combined in 2020. This conclusion can be reached when converting credit card spending in the EU-27 in its original euro denomination to U.S. dollars. This conversion was added by Statista to promote cross-country comparisons, for example, against credit card transaction value in the United States. Note that the United Kingdom is not part of this league table, as the country separated from the European Union in 2020. The source, therefore, removed all figures - both new and historical - from the overview. Credit card processing volume in the UK, though, ranks among the highest in the European region.

Value of payments with cards with a credit function, issued by resident PSPs, in 23 countries in Europe from 2000 to 2020 (in million U.S. dollars)
