The total amount of check payments made in the Eurozone has changed drastically throughout the 2010 to 2019 period. A continuous decline in the use of checks took place during this period of time. In 2019, approximately 1.87 billion checks were written out across the Eurozone, which was just a fraction of the amount of checks written in 2010 (3.87 billion). The drops in checks written in the Eurozone corresponds with the drop in the general area of Europe.
