U.S., Canada, and U.K. Prepaid Markets: Similarities and Differences provides a comparison of these markets including market size, taxonomy, regulations, and key players.
Additionally, the report looks at the regulatory environments for prepaid debit cards, which are continually changing especially in Canada and the United Kingdom as regulators learn the nuances of the card market and where the risk lies. While some controls are necessary, prepaid programs face risks at both the state/providence and federal level provoking continual compliance concerns.
The prepaid debit card market is unique in that there are many product offerings under prepaid debit cards that are not widely known under that designation. People are more likely to know them as a gift, payroll, incentive, travel, or general-purpose reloadable (GPR) cards. Each country has its own set of products that function primarily the same but with major differences in the regulatory requirements. It's valuable to players in the prepaid market to see how each country is evolving in this space, the author of the report commented.
Highlights of the report include:
-- Canada is the smallest of the three markets at $4.3 billion, followed by
the United Kingdom at $39 billion; the United States is largest at $665
billion.
-- Each of the three offers opportunities. Canada has significant room for
growth, the United Kingdom is quickly embracing e-money licenses which
allow fintechs to operate more like banks, and the United States prepaid
market, although mature, continues to reinvent itself through new
product offerings and additional robust features when compared to the
other counties.
-- The three taxonomies in the report show the growth difference in product
offerings. The U.S. has the largest array of offerings with 11
categories, and 23 market segments. Canada has 3 categories and 17
segments, and the U.K. has 3 categories and 17 segments.
-- Regulations are expected to have an impact on the prepaid segment in
Canada and the U.K. Controls are decreasing the usage of anonymous
prepaid cards, and strong customer authentication (full registration of
the card) will be required to have full access to all features and
functionality.
