Quarterly adoption of prepaid cards or vouchers in the U.S. 2018-2024
The share of respondents using prepaid cards at POS (Point-of-Sale) in the United States decreased by three percentage points between 2018 and 2024. This is according to two different questions asked throughout multiple surveys from Statista's Consumer Insights. The numbers shown here refer to a rolling 12-month share of respondents who indicated they used either prepaid cards or a voucher in a brick and mortar shop or whilst shopping online. In 2018, the share of respondents using prepaid cards and/or vouchers at POS (Point-of-Sale) stood at 18 percent, which declined to 16 percent in the third quarter of 2023. However, during the same period, the share of respondents using vouchers for online payments remained the same, at 17 percent.
