162.2 million card purchases were made in this country in October this year. This corresponds to growth of nearly 4.8% compared to last October.




It appears in the new numbers of Nets and BankAxept. According to the numbers, October is the current year 's month with the strongest growth in revenue with payment cards. Payment cards for trade in goods and services were used for almost NOK 53 billion.

Credit cards with BankAxept were used in October, 137.8 million times, and BankAxept was traded for more than $ 42.2 billion.

In addition to BankAxept cards, the use of cards is spread across various international cards, credit cards and electronic gift cards.

There is also good growth for contactless payments. In October, the number of cards borrowed by BankAxept reached nearly 5.3 million times, an increase of 22.1% compared to September.

"When customers delete the card, the payment is faster, which is efficient for both customers and retailers," said Vegar Heir, Vipps AS sales manager, whose BankAxept is now a part.
