Media Centre

This area has been designed as a resource for journalists, researchers and other interested parties.

UK Payments can offer advice on a wide range of topics and issues such as plastic cards, card fraud, chip and PIN, cheques, electronic payments and cash. UK Payments also forecasts payment trends, conducts market research, carries out lobbying activities, collates industry statistics, and is involved in developing industry standards and best practices.

We are happy to provide background information, industry comment, or put forward a spokesperson on the payments issues within our remit so please contact us. The Communications team will also verify payment facts and figures or assist you in any other way we can.
