Hungary: number of credit and debit cards

Approximately 15 percent of payment cards in Hungary were credit cards, reaching a total of roughly 1.3 million in 2019. Debit cards were found more often in the country, as that year there were around eight million of these cards. The numbers provided are estimates, based on the figures central banks have to supply. Owning a payment card does not immediately indicate it gets used often, as there are large differences within Europe when it comes to the use of certain payment methods.
