• Detailed analysis of the marketing strategies adopted for selling debit, credit and prepaid cards used by banks and other institutions in the market
• Comprehensive analysis of consumer attitudes and buying preferences for cards
• The competitive landscape of Colombia's cards and payments industry

In 2013, Colombia surpassed Argentina to become the third-largest economy in Latin America and was the fourth-highest recipient of foreign direct investment (FDI), with US$17.0 billion in the same year. Of the total population of 47.2 million, however, the unbanked population accounted for nearly 35% of the adult population in 2013, according to the Colombian Banking Association. The low banking penetration levels present banks and card issuers operating with growth potential. Banks have stepped in to take advantage of this large untapped market, having introduced a number of cards targeting the unbanked population. While leading card issuers pushed for growth by offering improved products, services and marketing campaigns, while the government encouraged electronic payments through its financial inclusion plan. Consequently, Colombian payment cards registered healthy growth during the review period (2009–2013), and are anticipated to continue the same trend over the forecast period (2014–2018).

In terms of the number of cards in circulation, Colombian payment cards (including debit and credit cards) registered a positive growth during the review period, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.05% and increasing from 22.6 million in 2009 to 30.8 million in 2013. Growth in the industry is expected to be driven by growth in the retail sector, an increasing demand for debit and credit cards, a better regulatory framework, an increasing market for online and mobile commerce and a positive economic outlook.

In 2013, the average transaction value (ATV) in Colombia was US$121, which was the second-highest in the Latin-American region. Peru recorded the highest ATV with US$144.3, followed by Chile (US$82.4), Venezuela (US$71.4), Brazil (US$69.6) and Argentina (US$50).

Similarly, in terms of card penetration, Colombia recorded 0.7 cards per inhabitant in 2013, while Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela and Peru recorded 2.6, 1.4, 1.3, 1.1 and 0.6 respectively. In terms of the frequency of use, Colombia recorded 28.7 transactions per card in the same year, while Venezuela, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Brazil recorded respective numbers of 61.2, 42.3, 37.6, 30.2 and 23.7.

Colombian payment cards grew both in terms of transaction value and volume during the review period. In terms of transaction value, payment cards posted a CAGR of 10.10%, increasing from COP136.9 trillion (US$63.4 billion) in 2009 to COP201.1 trillion (US$105.9 billion) in 2013. It is anticipated that this value will increase at a CAGR of 3.91% over the forecast period, to reach COP246.3 trillion (US$137 billion) in 2018. In terms of transaction volume, payment cards increased from 636.2 million in 2009 to 885.2 million in 2013, at a review-period CAGR of 8.61%. It is expected to reach 1.1 billion transactions in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 4.10% over the forecast period.

Prepaid cards are gaining popularity among Colombian consumers. Banks offer a range of prepaid card variants, such as gift cards, transport cards, food cards, fuel cards and shopping cards, and do not insist on having an account with them to issue these cards. Likewise, the majority of the Colombian companies offer prepaid cards to their employees as part of their salary packages. These cards are offered to meet food and fuel expenses. BBVA Colombia and Banco Davivienda offer Visa-branded prepaid cards called ‘Visa Vale’ to their employees. The growth of the prepaid card market has attracted new entrants. The US-based Latin American prepaid service provider NovoPayment launched its Colombian operations in 2009. The company offers three reloadable MasterCard-branded prepaid corporate cards: the Plata Combustible (money-fuel); the Plata Compras (money-purchases) cash management card; and the Plata Clásica payroll card for the unbanked population.
