A recent study, conducted by the credit card comparison website CardHub, found that consumers continue charging more on their credit cards. The report finds Americans accumulated nearly $48 billion in new credit card debt in 2011, 424 percent more than what they charged in 2010, and 577 percent more than in 2009. Although total outstanding credit rose only about $4 billion, that number was largely offset by the magnitude of consumer defaults--$44.2 billion. "First-quarter pay-downs have become less significant and the amount of new debt added in each subsequent quarter has grown compared to its respective counterparts in the previous two years," the report said.

Greg McBride, senior financial analyst at Bankrate.com, explains that card issuers were aggressive in writing off bad debt in 2009 and 2012. "That's why over the last year or so they've been out actively seeking to grow their business," McBride argues.
One way credit card companies are expanding their reach is with mobile payment and online ventures. As reported last month in The Wall Street Journal, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Capital One Financial Corp. and Barclays PLC will enable their customers to use a mobile-payments service being developed by several wireless carriers starting this summer.
