Private Label Credit Cards: United States
This report forecasts US private label credit card (PLCC) market growth to 2025. To illustrate historical trends, US PLCC purchase volume and outstandings are provided by top issuers for 2019-2022 in US dollars. Total PLCC purchase volume and outstandings are segmented by issuer: Synchrony Financial, Citi Retail Services, Capital One, Bread Financial, Wells Fargo, and TD Bank.
This report covers the US market for PLCCs, with an emphasis on card issuers, merchants, consumers, and the competitive and economic challenges shaping the industry.
For the purposes of this report, we define branded credit cards as credit cards carrying the logo of one of the four leading US card associations: American Express, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa. They can be used anywhere that association logo is accepted for payment.
Credit card issuers and merchants may partner to issue a closed-loop credit card that does not run on the card network rails. The closed-loop means a transaction authorization runs only between two parties: the merchant and the card issuing bank. Because these cards do not pass through the open-loops of Visa or Mastercard, they may only be used at the individual merchant.
