Consumer-based credit card transactions were the main contributor to Latin America's payments revenue, with a value six times that of commercial credit cards. The source compares the region to the world overall: Commercial made up 52 percent of global payments revenue, compared to 48 percent for consumer payments in 2023. This distribution was reversed for Latin America, with consumer-driven payments making up 55 percent of overall revenue and 45 percent of commercial payments. The source calls Latin America predominantly card-driven, possibly due to the major role of credit cards in Latin American e-commerce.
