COVID-19 Scenario
- The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on the travel credit card market. Many consumers found themselves unable to fully utilize the travel-related benefits offered by these cards with global travel restrictions, lockdowns, and a decrease in travel confidence. This led to a decrease in demand for travel credit cards and a shift towards cards offering more flexible rewards or cashback on everyday spending.
- In response, card issuers adapted their offerings by introducing new perks like enhanced grocery and streaming rewards to better align with changing consumer priorities. As the travel industry gradually recovers, the market is now seeing a resurgence in interest for travel credit cards, but with an increased emphasis on flexibility and diverse redemption options.
The co-branded segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period
Based on type, the co-branded segment held the highest market share in 2022, accounting for more than two-thirds of the global travel credit card market revenue and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. This is since they often offer special perks and rewards tailored to those travel companies. Moreover, people who frequently use a certain airline or stay at a particular hotel chain find these cards very appealing. However, the non-co branded segment is projected to attain the highest CAGR of 13.8% from 2023 to 2032. This is attributed to the fact that they offer more flexibility, and it be used for a wider range of travel expenses, not just with one particular company. This factor makes them attractive to a broader group of travelers who prefer flexibility over loyalty to one specific brand.

The Visa segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period
Based on provider, the visa segment held the highest market share in 2022, accounting for nearly three-fifths of the global travel credit card market revenue, owing to the fact that Visa, as one of the world's largest payment technology companies, plays a significant role in the global travel credit card market. It provides the infrastructure for a wide range of financial transactions, including travel-related expenses. However, the MasterCard segment is projected to attain the highest CAGR of 14.2% from 2022 to 2032. This is due to the fact that travelers appreciate the convenience and reliability of using a Mastercard for their expenses, both domestically and internationally. Moreover, the shift toward contactless payments and digital wallets has worked in favor of Mastercard.
The transaction segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period
Based on application, the transaction segment held the highest market share in 2022, accounting for more than two-fifths of the global travel credit card market revenue. This is attributed to its fundamental role in facilitating day-to-day financial activities for consumers. Travel credit cards are not solely reserved for travel-related expenses, they serve as versatile payment instruments for a wide range of transactions. This includes everything from grocery shopping to online purchases and dining out. Consumers find convenience and security in using their travel credit cards for routine spending with features like contactless payments and secure online transactions. However, the priority access segment is projected to attain the highest CAGR of 15.2% from 2022 to 2032. This is because of the increasing demand for premium travel experiences. These cards cater to a more selective clientele, offering exclusive perks like airport lounge access, expedited security checks, and complimentary upgrades. The appeal of priority access becomes a compelling factor as consumers increasingly seek elevated travel experiences and convenience. Furthermore, these cards often come with additional benefits like travel insurance and concierge services, further enhancing their attractiveness to frequent travelers and high-spending individuals. This combination of luxury and convenience is expected to drive the rapid growth of the priority access segment in the coming years.
North America to maintain its dominance by 2032
Based on region, North America held the highest market share for more than one-third in terms of revenue in 2022. This is attributed to the fact that the region boasts a well-established culture of credit card usage, with a large portion of the population relying on credit for various transactions, including travel expenses. This widespread acceptance and familiarity with credit cards have contributed significantly to the dominance of travel credit cards in North America. Moreover, the region is home to numerous global financial hubs, including New York and Toronto, which houses major credit card companies and banks. This concentration of financial institutions has facilitated the proliferation of travel credit card offerings, often with enticing rewards and benefits, further driving their popularity. However, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 15.1% from 2023 to 2032 and is likely to dominate the market during the forecast period. This is attributed to the rapidly expanding middle class in several Asian economies. Individuals in these regions are increasingly seeking enhanced travel experiences, making them a prime customer of travel credit card issuers with rise in disposable incomes. In addition, many countries in Asia-Pacific are experiencing robust economic growth, leading to increased interest in international travel. As a result, consumers in this region are showing a growing appetite for travel-related financial products, including credit cards tailored to their specific needs. These converging factors creates ground for substantial growth in the Asia-Pacific travel credit card market during the forecast period.
