Financial Cards and Payments in South Korea

Financial card transaction value continued to increase in 2012, with debit cards leading growth. Government policy and the efforts of consumers to spend economically ensured that the area continued to perform well. One of the reasons for debit card growth is that, starting from 2012, there will be a change in year-end tax deductions which will favour debit card users. The only area which recorded a decrease in transaction value in 2012 was store cards, which is struggling due to competitios.
