The numbers provided have been calculated by ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ, using numbers on ATM and OTC withdrawals. See the "Details" tab for more information
Supplementary notes
No data is available that covers the exact volume of transactions conducted with cash money. In order to make a credible estimation, this calculation looked at the following indicators:
- Value of ATM cash withdrawals (either with cards issued by resident PSPs at any terminal, provided by either a resident or non-resident PSP, or with cards issued by non-resident PSPs at terminals provided by resident PSPs;
- Value of OTC or over-the-counter cash withdrawals;
- Value of card payments, issued by resident PSPs;
- Value of e-money payment transactions, issued by resident PSPs.
To summarize, this methodology tries to put cash withdrawals, either at an ATM or OTC, in perspective of all payment transactions (withdrawals + card payment+ e-money transactions) within a country. Numbers on checks, ACH or instant payments have not been used.
Note that numbers on OTC withdrawals and e-money are not always readily available for all years. Multiple sources were consulted to get to these numbers. In the case of Malta, OTC numbers were only available for 2011, 2012 and 2013. E-money was available after 2015, due to a "new entrant in the card business market".
* The figure for 2017 was flawed due to a lack of ATM data. With the available data, the original number would have been 3.9 percent respectively. This has therefore been omitted. The values used in the calculations for Malta were in euros.
