10 years of spend
What can the last decade of consumer spending tell us about the next one?
The UK has seen a staggering amount of change in the last 10 years. From Brexit, to a global pandemic, to a cost of living crisis, the country today looks very different than it did a decade ago. With 20 million customers and sight of 40% of the UK’s credit and debit card transactions, Barclays has been part of the transformation of the nation’s spending and has a unique view of UK spend during this time.
Our report brings together billions of card payments and over 200,000 completed surveys to provide unparalleled insight into how UK spending has evolved over the last decade and the ten trends that are set to define it for years to come.
