ATMIA publishes new US Payments Study

London, UK & South Dakota, USA – ATMIA has today published a new study on current US payments trends entitled “US Consumer Payments Trends Summary”.

The research was commissioned by ATMIA and conducted by Tremont Capital Group.

“There has been a shift from paper payments to electronic payments over the past two decades, but shifts in US consumer preferences have been far less dramatic and more gradual than many assumed,” says Sam M. Ditzion, CEO of Tremont Capital Group and author of the study. “Cash remains the most frequent form of consumer payment in in the United States and I suspect will remain so for a long time to come.”

The study, free for members, will boost ATMIA’s Market Intelligence Library and online cash repository.

“One of the myths of the payments industry is that ‘sexy’ new payments methods are rapidly replacing more established kinds of payments and forms of money,” explained Mike Lee, CEO of ATMIA. “This excellent study – one of the best I’ve read in recent times – decisively dispels this myth, replacing it with an immutable truth that changes in payments behavior happen over decades, not years.”
