Payment Cards and Card Transactions is an annual publication of the Croatian National Bank, issued for the first time in July 2015, which is released within payment statistics. The publication provides explanations of basic terms related to payment cards, card schemes and payment service providers and presents aggregated statistical data on national and international card-based payment transactions.

Statistical data are shown in three main chapters: a chapter on payment cards issued in the RC, a chapter on national and international card-based transactions made using payment cards issued in the RC (Croatian issuers) and a chapter on card-based payment transactions made through accepting devices by payment cards of Croatian and foreign issuers (acquiring payment cards).

The purpose of the publication is to provide a comprehensive overview of the payment cards market and card-based payment transactions in the RC to payment service providers, other institutions and the general public.
