What Credit Card Ownership Measures

Share of adults aged 15+ who report owning a credit card, from the World Bank Global Findex survey.

Why This Ranking Matters

Examining Credit Card Ownership across all countries reveals patterns that might not be obvious at the national level. Regional clusters, outlier nations, and historical trajectories all become clearer when the full global picture is assembled in a single ranking.

Regional Patterns

European countries dominate this ranking, holding 12 of the top 20 positions. This strong regional concentration suggests shared economic, geographic, or policy factors that drive higher values across the continent.

Values are broadly distributed across countries, with the middle 50% ranging from 3.48% of adults to 29.91% of adults. The overall spread from 0.15% of adults to 82.74% of adults reflects significant global variation.
