The Nilson Report has published continuously since 1970 and delivers 22 issues annually to subscribers in more than 80 countries. All without any advertising.

Subscribers receive statistics about merchant acquirers, card issuers, card networks (both global brands and domestic-only brands), POS terminal manufacturers, fraud losses and more. 

Statistics published in the Nilson Report are not available from other sources.  

The newsletter also delivers award winning featured articles, brief news items and postings about executive appointments that include the names and email addresses of more than 1,000 senior-level business leaders annually. 

Every year, the Nilson Report publishes a ranking of Europe’s 45 largest merchant acquirers that includes the number of transactions processed, purchase volume generated by those transactions, number of merchant outlets served, POS terminals managed and the percentage of transactions that are card-not-present.

Feature articles and First Look (brief news items) cover Europe-based payment service providers, gateways, embedded payment services, pay-by-bank companies, fraud fighting specialists, POS terminal manufacturers and other platform providers.

The largest companies in the payment industry hold site licenses to the Nilson Report and make every issue of the newsletter available to all their employees.

If you are building a career in card payments, you need access to every issue of the Nilson Report.
