Credit card purchases in Canada averaged roughly 99 Canadian dollars, or nearly 27 dollars, in 2022 - a value that was higher than in previous years. This is according to estimates based on the overall value of credit card transactions against the number of transactions within the country. These numbers have only been reported on an annual basis. Notable for Canada is the steady decline since 2012, which may indicate that credit cards have been used for increasingly smaller transactions.
