<strong>and</strong> loan defaults, which had a direct impact on the card payments channel.<br />

In terms of the number of cards in circulation, the prepaid <strong>and</strong> debit card categories registered<br />

healthy growth at compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) of 15.44% <strong>and</strong> 3.29% respectively<br />

during the review period (20092013). With the Greek economy anticipated to recover slowly<br />

over the forecast period (20142018), the prepaid <strong>and</strong> debit card categories are expected to<br />

grow at a healthy pace <strong>and</strong> register CAGRs of 21.80% <strong>and</strong> 4.62% respectively, while the credit<br />

<strong>and</strong> charge card categories continue to decline, albeit more slowly than during the review<br />

period.<br />

A well-developed mobile market <strong>and</strong> the growing popularity of smartphones have led to robust<br />

growth in mobile payments (m-payments), which posted a review-period CAGR of 41.55%,<br />

increasing from EUR26.2 million (US$36.3 million) in 2009 to EUR105.0 million (US$139.2<br />

million) in 2013. Over the forecast period, the value of m-payments is anticipated to further<br />

increase from EUR149.2 million (US$201.2 million) in 2014 to EUR803.0 million (US$1.1 billion)<br />

in 2018, at a CAGR of 52.32%.<br />

Banks such as National Bank of Greece (NGB), Alpha Bank <strong>and</strong> Eurobank Ergasias are partnering<br />

with merchants <strong>and</strong> online retailers to offer secure payment facilities, enabling customers pay<br />

online or via mobile phones linked to bank accounts. As a result, e-commerce recorded a<br />

review-period CAGR of 43.75% <strong>and</strong> grew from EUR962.3 million (US$1.3 billion) in 2009 to<br />

EUR4.1 billion (US$5.4 billion) in 2013. It is anticipated to post a forecast-period CAGR of<br />

32.94% to reach EUR18.0 billion (US$25.4 billion) by the end of 2018.<br />
