Cashless Economy Standard
The Australian payment landscape in 2026 is shaped by a cashless economy where card payments remain widely used. Cards are supported by Visa, Mastercard, and eftpos, with strong adoption of contactless payments across consumers. They account for over 70% of payments in everyday transactions. For publishers, card payments help drive revenue by enabling secure and widely accepted transactions across online and in-store commerce.
