Debit card purchases in France averaged roughly 38 euros, or nearly 46 dollars, in 2021 - a value that was only slightly less than in previous years. This according to estimates based on the overall value of debit card transactions against the number of transactions within the country. These numbers have only been reported on an annual basis. A declining figure may indicate that consumers use this payment method more often for smaller purchases.

Figures are not always comparable, though, due to tracking or reporting standards. This is especially for credit cards.
