Mastercard Economics Institute’s “Shifting Wallets” Research

In an ever-changing and unprecedented global economy, the consumer decisions about where, when, and how much they spend now may help disclose where we are heading next. The Mastercard Economics Institute’s “Shifting Wallets” research investigates how customers throughout the world adhere to habits that provide convenience, enjoyment, or both.

The newest Mastercard Economics Institute analysis employs novel and high-frequency economic metrics to address three crucial questions: what, where, and when consumers’ purchasing preferences are evolving.

With rising costs requiring people to reconcile their discretionary and necessary spending, travel and food have dominated the conversation in recent years.

Travel is a top priority for consumers. Despite increased logistical constraints and pricing pressures, global consumer travel reservations this summer (May-August) were 15% higher than in 2019. 2 Except in European nations where passengers have adequate alternatives to flying for shorter visits, short-haul flights drive the majority of global travel growth.

Restaurant expenditure increased by 25% this year compared to the same period in 2021, while grocery spending increased by 14%, mostly due to food inflation. 4

Looking at longer-term patterns, online grocery spending is up 70% over the pre-pandemic trend, while in-store food spending is up 25%.

This reflects the pandemic-driven transition to digital and the tenacity of convenience-based buying.
