DUBLIN, June 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Prepaid Cards in the U.S., 7th Edition" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The COVID-19 pandemic is reshaping the prepaid card industry.

As store closures hobble the mighty J-hook, and related trends push prepaid card users into the digital realm, these cash-loyal consumers find themselves choosing their card over cash and coins - and while short-term payment value pain hits most segments of the prepaid card market, long-term interchange fee revenue gains are in the making.

Of course, card type and other growth factors help shape the longer-term outcome: B2B prepaid cards, for example, continue their growth tear, while the proliferation of app-based prepaid digital accounts pressures consumer general-purpose reloadable prepaid card growth.

Overall, the publisher expects the prepaid card market to grow by a healthy 6% average annual rate from 2020 to 2024.

Prepaid Cards in the U.S., 7th Edition provides insight into significant near-term and longer-term factors shaping this varied and growing card segment. More specifically, this report:

  • Provides a market size and forecast for the prepaid card market, including trended payment value for general use (open-loop) and private label (closed-loop) prepaid cards, by card type, with related growth opportunity analysis
  • Assesses in detail the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the prepaid card industry, including cash conversion, payment electronification, interchange, and deposits, as well as effects by card type
  • Gauges (reloadable and non-reloadable) prepaid card use trends during 2014-2019, breaking prepaid card use down by card network; banked status; credit score; cash preference; and app and smartphone use

  • studies reasons for choosing general-purpose reloadable prepaid cards, including use cost; overdraft fee avoidance and debt management; credit and bank account substitution; breadth of acceptance; and reloading method
  • Explores prepaid card marketer and issuer strategies, including those of Axos Financial, The Bancorp Bank, Green Dot, MetaBank and Netspend
  • Analysis includes competitive positioning, new product introductions, company innovations, and trended performance analysis.
  • Heavy emphasis is placed on add-value proprietary estimates for load value, purchase value, and other metrics otherwise not published by these industry participants.
