Average Spend

Description

This gives an overview of the average card turnover for each issuer country, which is returned by "per transaction", "per card" and "per card per day".

The summed card turnover is calculated for each segment, and so is the average number of cards and average duration of stay. Based on these values the averages is calculated.

The duration of stay is calculated by finding the days between the first and last transaction of a single card in a 30 days period.

The "per card" only includes international transactions, otherwise the Nordic countries would top the list by far.

The "per card per day" only includes physical international transactions (POS), because it is hard to estimate how long the duration of a stay per cardholder is, if one includes ECOM transactions. A tourist could buy flight tickets online few months before arrival, which will stretch the average duration of stay calculated.

FAQ

Who spends most per transaction?

• Looking at the per transaction response, the countries at top will be the answer.

Who are the big spenders in the hospitality sector?

• Use the filter to only look for the vertical hospitality, and again the top countries will be the ones spending most. It seems like Israel is one of the top countries.
