Session Description:

The development of successful marketing strategies and tactics, and the accurate measurement of brand performance in the market, depends in large part on understanding the differences and similarities between ‘revolving’ and ‘transacting’ credit card owners. A ‘low interest rate’ message platform delivered to a rewards-driven transactor can miss the mark as much as a ‘rewards-based’ message targeted to those who need to use cards as a consumer lending vehicle. The assessment of market performance, including tracking measures of satisfaction and loyalty, can be significantly influenced by the underlying dynamics that distinguish revolvers from transactors.

This presentation from Phoenix Marketing International will provide current (and historical) data to help describe key differences and similarities between ‘revolvers’ and ‘transactors’.

The presentation will cover such areas as:

  1. incidence of revolving/transacting behavior over time
  2. average monthly spending and balances among the two groups
  3. demographic profiling
  4. ownership and usage of rewards cards
  5. most widely owned card brands
  6. card brands most commonly selected as primary cards
  7. key reasons driving primary card selection
  8. satisfaction rates
     

Phoenix Marketing International conducts a continuous online survey among general-purpose cardholders throughout the year. The survey tracks the performance – from the cardholder perspective – of over 50 card issuers and 150 specific card brands. The latest 12-month period available for analysis is Q3 2006 through Q2 2007 – with over 26,000 cardholder interviews completed during this period. Over the past several years, a total of 107,000 cardholder interviews have been completed.

This program is appropriate for senior financial executives with responsibility for Credit Card Marketing, Channel Marketing Product Development, Market Research and Strategy Teams.
