While interest rates in the United States declined ***** times by late 2024, average credit card interest rates did not immediately follow suit. This reveals itself when comparing the Federal Reserve interest rate against the APR, or annual percentage rates, of credit cards issued by commercial banks. The APR reached a record high in the country in 2024, likely adding to the growing credit card debt in the United States. This was below the APR of credit cards in a country like Brazil, however. It is expected that the credit card interest rates will continue to need time to catch up with the Fed interest rate.
Commercial bank interest rates on credit card plans in the United States were over *** percent higher in early 2025 than in the same period in 2022. In February 2025, the interest amount on credit card plans amounted to ***** percent. Alongside this development, the overall amount of credit card debt in the U.S. reached an all-time high in Q4 2023. Credit cards are considered one of the most common ways to pay in the United States, so potential changes on credit card debt are closely tied to both the inflation figure and central bank interest rate of the country.
This statistic presents the average credit card interest rate in Latin America in 2018, sorted by selected countries. The highest interest rate among the countries shown was found in Brazil, with an average interest of ***** percent. Argentina came in second, with ****** percent.
The interest rate for credit cards in the UK grew to an all-time high in May 2025, even though the base rate for the Bank of England grew at a slower pace that month. Credit card interest rates tend to be significantly higher than other forms of lending, and the United Kingdom is no exception to this. By May 2025, the average interest rate had increased to ***** percent. The Bank of England base rate stood at **** percent since April 2025 – which was not yet the highest value observed. Nevertheless, the central bank's interest rate grew slower than that of credit cards.

Lending Rate: per Annum: Pre-Fixed: Corporate Entities: Prepaid Credit Card Bills: Banco Commercial Investment Trus data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by Central Bank of Brazil. The data is categorized under Brazil Premium Database’s Interest and Foreign Exchange Rates – Table BR.MB038: Lending Rate: per Annum: by Banks: Pre-Fixed: Corporate Entities: Prepaid Credit Card Bills. Lending Rate: Daily: Interest rates disclosed represent the total cost of the transaction to the client, also including taxes and operating. These rates correspond to the average fees in the period indicated in the tables. There are presented only institutions that had granted during the period determined. In general, institutions practicing different rates within the same type of credit. Thus, the rate charged to a customer may differ from the average. Several factors such as the time and volume of the transaction, as well as the guarantees offered, explain the differences between interest rates. Certain institutions grant allowance of the use of the term overdraft. However, this is not considered in the calculation of rates of this type. It should be noted that the overdraft is a modality that has high interest rates. Thus, its use should be restricted to short periods. If the customer needs resources for a longer period, should find ways to offer lower rates. The Brazilian Central Bank publishes these data with a delay about 20 days with relation to the reference period, thus allowing sufficient time for all Financial Institutions to deliver the relevant information. Interest rates presented in this set of tables correspond to averages weighted by the values of transactions conducted in the five working days specified in each table. These rates represent the average effective cost of loans to customers, consisting of the interest rates actually charged by financial institutions in their lending operations, increased tax burdens and operational incidents on the operations. The interest rates shown are the average of the rates charged in the various operations performed by financial institutions, in each modality. In one discipline, interest rates may differ between customers of the same financial institution. Interest rates vary according to several factors, such as the value and quality of collateral provided in the operation, the proportion of down payment operation, the history and the registration status of each client, the term of the transaction, among others . Institutions with “zero” did not operate on modalities for those periods or did not provide information to the Central Bank of Brazil. The Central Bank of Brazil assumes no responsibility for delay, error or other deficiency of information provided for purposes of calculating average rates presented in this

Credit card issuance revenue is slated to dip at a compound annual rate of 7.3% over the five years through 2025-26 to £20.5 billion, including estimated growth of 9.5% in 2025-26. The cost-of-living crisis has been both a blessing and a curse – on the one hand, households have turned to credit cards to pay for necessities as disposable incomes have taken a hit; on the other, it’s caused a higher rate of default and a lower level of total spending. Rampant inflation has made revenue very volatile. Drops in disposable income have left households scrambling to pay for necessities, with the ONS finding that 21% of adults had to use personal loans or credit cards to afford their living costs across 2023-24. Credit card issuers earn a large portion of their revenue from interest income. When the Bank of England ramped up interest rates to curb spiralling inflation over the two years through 2023-24, issuers saw their revenue skyrocket. Although interest rate cuts occurred over 2024-25, the average rate issuers charged borrowers continued to climb, reflecting the rising number of defaults, and issuers seeking to maintain profitability after being forced to raise provisions to cover losses. Interest rates will continue to drop in 2025-26, but this will make borrowing more affordable and reduce the likelihood of defaults, supporting lending activity and aiding revenue growth during the year. The likely decline in defaults will also allow issuers to reduce provisions, lifting the average industry profit margin to 5.9% in 2025-26. Credit card issuance revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 4.1% over the five years through 2030-31 to reach £19.3 billion. Demand for credit cards from younger demographics is set to pick up in the coming years, with TransUnion finding more Gen Z consumers getting credit cards in 2023 compared to Millennials a decade earlier, positioning the industry for solid growth. The intensifying threat of buy-now-pay-later platforms will also cool as the FCA clamps down on the industry, introducing new regulations that increase transparency and checks to ensure borrowers can repay their debt. Issuers will also seek to capitalise on the growing market of environmentally conscious consumers, using recycled plastics and biodegradable alternatives for credit cards. This will give smaller issuers a healthy source of competition to compete with more established companies, weighing on market share concentration.
