Average transaction value in the Euro Area 2016, by method
This statistic displays the average value of payments made in the Euro area in 2016, by method used. In 2016 'other' payment methods had the highest average value at almost 62 euros per transaction. What could be seen was that although in sheer number of payments cash is still very much the preferred method of use in the Euro area, the average value of payments using cash are far lower than card payments.
