The UAE payments market is defined by a high reliance on cash among consumers, with cash accounting for 84.6% of the total payment transaction volume in 2017. This was primarily because consumers in the UAE see cash as a quicker and safer payment option over which they have more control. However, card payments are gradually increasing, supported by government financial inclusion programs, promotional campaigns by financial institutions, and the adoption of newer payment technologies.

In terms of transaction volume and value, debit cards will continue to dominate the overall payment card market. However, their usage is mostly confined to cash withdrawals at ATMs. Pay-later cards will remain the preferred card for payments at POS terminals. Growth in the Emirati payment card market will be largely driven by credit cards and charge cards, with their growth rates outreaching pay-now cards throughout the forecast period.
