PRESS REVIEW

I read an article the other day on the online version of “Austriantimes” and it talks about the usage of Austrian credit cards abroad.

Basically what it says is that credit cards are the Austrians’ most favourite payment methods abroad.

There is also the information that more than 40 per cent of 1.15 million credit cards were used abroad last year. Austrians use their credit cards an average 14 times abroad to spend around 1400 Euros every year.

The company PayLife had a market share of 46 per cent and they expect a increase by 15 to 20 per cent this year because of the usage of credit cards.

In my opinion it’s a very good way to pay with a credit card because then you don’t have to take a lot of money with you.
