NOIDA, India - April 16, 2014 - PRLog -- Though the popularity of payroll and travel cards is increasing in the country, their penetration is still less. According to a new report by RNCOS, “Indian Prepaid Card Market Outlook 2018”, the penetration of travel cards and payroll cards is very low in the urban areas and almost negligible in the rural areas. However, with efforts of several banking and non-banking institutions, to increase the popularity of such cards, coupled with growing acceptance of these cards among consumers, the penetration of payroll and travel cards is expected to increase in the future.

According to our report, the urban branches of private banks have laid emphasis on promoting various prepaid cards through banners hung outside the bank premises and innovative classifieds on bank portals. Further banks like Axis bank have issued very first Rupee denominated Travel Card “India travel card” for Foreign Nationals and Non Resident Indians (NRIs), which can be directly swiped, without any transaction fee, at merchant establishments accepting VISA cards.
