4 Key Payments Trends from the 2013 World Payments Report
Capgemini released its annual World Payments Report in conjunction with RBS this past week at Sibos. The report, which tracks worldwide payments trends, found that non-cash payments increased 8.8% to 307 billion transactions in 2011, and predicted that number increased 8.5% to 333 billion transactions in 2012.
