What Is the Average Amount of Credit Cards to Have?
A study done by Gallup reveals that the average person has 2.6 credit cards, however, this statistic is a bit off because it also includes the 29 percent of Americans who don’t have credit cards. Those with more credit cards are often able to have more due to having higher credit scores.
Below is a chart of the poll.
Number of Credit Cards | Percentage of Americans |
0 | 29% |
1-2 | 33% |
3-4 | 18% |
5-6 | 9% |
7 or more | 7% |
