1 Introduction

One of the major goals of the Survey of Consumer Payment Choice (SCPC) is to provide publicly available,consumer-level longitudinal data to support research on consumer payments and to provide aggregate dataon trends in U.S. consumer payments. This survey is the companion to the Diary of Consumer PaymentChoice (DCPC).

The questionnaires and public datasets for the 2018 SCPC are available for download on the Atlanta Fedwebsite1. The data are provided in Stata, SAS, CSV, and Rdata formats. The Atlanta Fed assumes thatdata users are familiar with a statistical analysis software package such as Stata, SAS, or R. The AtlantaFed does not provide any software assistance.

This document is a data user’s guide for the SCPC survey data. Anyone interested in conducting researchbased on SCPC data will find it helpful to become familiar with this document. See the 2018 Surveyof Consumer Payment Choice: Technical Appendix for details on questionnaire changes, data collection,sampling methodology, and hypothesis test results.

A broad overview of the 2018 SCPC, including a summary of the survey and tables of survey results, canbe found in the The 2018 Survey of Consumer Payment Choice results paper on the Atlanta Fed website.

2 SCPC variable overview

There are three broad categories of SCPC variables. Below we provide general information about each.UAS My Household Questionnaire variables represent a small fraction of variables that come

from the UAS My Household survey (MH). The MH survey is used to gather demographic data about eachrespondent. UAS members take the MH survey quarterly, and their most recent responses to the MH surveyare included in these SCPC datasets. Visit the UAS website for more information about the UAS MHsurvey2.

Survey variables are the actual results from the SCPC survey questions. Survey variables have variablenames such as pa001 a or pu004 b. To see the exact question text, respondent instructions, response optionwording, and structure of the questions on the screen, it is recommended that data users refer to the surveyquestionnaire. The questionnaire is available on the Atlanta Fed website3. Two important considerations ofthe survey variables are:

• Randomization of response option orders: To avoid potential biases arising from the order of responseoptions presented to respondents, the survey instrument randomizes response options for some ques-tions. The questionnaire clearly indicates if response options were randomized. The unrandomizedvariables have the same variable names as the original survey variables. The raw data from the unran-domized variables and the SAS macros that unrandomize the responses will be made available uponrequest.

• Responses for different time frequencies: Respondents are given the option of reporting payment usein terms of a typical week, month, or year. This dataset includes variables where responses have beenstandardized to a monthly frequency. These created, “frequency converted” variables have the samename as the original responses, but without a numeric suffix. For instance, the variable pu006a a refersto the number of cash payments for retail goods in a typical month, after frequency conversion. Theset of three original variables that produce pu006a a are pu006a a1 (respondent used the weekly boxto report these transactions), pu006a a2 (monthly) and pu006a a3 (yearly). All the variables in thePayment Use section (pu002, pu003, pu004, pu005, pu006a, pu006c, pu021 families of variables) havecorresponding created variables which are described in Section 2.2.4, Payment use. The SAS macrosfor the frequency conversions can be made available upon request. The Atlanta Fed recommends thatdata analysts use the created frequency converted variables in their analysis and research.

Created variables are created by Atlanta Fed staff to populate the SCPC results tables and to aid indata analysis. Most of these variables have descriptive names based on a combination of mnemonics. Forexample, the variable cc typ consists of two mnemonics: cc stands for “credit card”, and typ stands for“number of transactions in a typical month”. More insight into variable name mnemonics is provided inSection 2.2.

2.1 Survey variables

2.1.1 Respondent identifier

The variable uasid is a 9 digit character variable of the form yymmxxxxx, where yy is the two-digit year (17for 2017, 18 for 2018, etc.) in which the respondent joined the UAS panel, mm is the month the respondentjoined the UAS panel (01 for January, 02 for February, etc.), and xxxxx is a random five digit number. Theuasid for a UAS member is the same across all UAS surveys. This allows data users to merge other UASsurvey datasets onto the SCPC dataset.

This variable is the equivalent of the variable uasid in other UAS surveys. In prior years of the SCPCand the DCPC, the variable uasid was renamed as prim key in order to maintain backwards compatibilitywith the code used to process the SCPC data. As of the 2018 SCPC and DCPC, the unique identifier willbe named uasid. For more information about uasid, visit this UAS data website. The variable uasid andother variables described on the UAS website allow the data user to determine if other members of the samehousehold are UAS members.

2.1.2 Survey weight

The weight variable in this survey dataset is r weight. For information about how the survey weights arecalculated, please see the 2018 SCPC Technical Appendix and 2018 Survey and Diary of ConsumerPayment Choice—Sampling and Weighting by Marco Angrisani.4 The Atlanta Fed survey staff rec-ommends that data analysts use the survey weight when generating population estimates.

2.2 Created variables

Most created variable names are a combination of two or more mnemonics, combined using underscores.Typically, the first mnemonic refers to payment instrument, type of account, or a method of payment. The

second or last mnemonic often indicates the concept being communicated, such as adoption ( adopt), ortypical use ( typ). This section describes the most common mnemonics.

2.2.1 Payment instruments

csh Cashchk Checkmon Money orderdc Debit cardcc Credit cardsvc Prepaid card/Stored-value cardbanp Bank account number paymentobbp Online banking bill paymentincome Direct deduction from income (used in automatic bill

payments only)nonbanka2a Account to account payment, using a nonbank ser-

vice such as PayPal or Venmo

Payment instruments are grouped as follows:

paper Cash, check, money ordercard Credit cards, debit cards, prepaid cardselect Bank account number payments, online banking bill payments, nonbank services such as PayPal or Venmo

2.2.2 Transaction types

The payment use section of the survey asks respondents to tell us the number of payments they make in atypical time period (week, month, or year). Those numbers then get converted to monthly numbers. Eachscreen of the payment use section corresponds to a transaction type. The transaction types are listed in thistable.

abp Automatic bill paymentobp Online bill paymentipbp In-person bill payment (or via mail)op Online (non-bill) paymentsrp Retail payments (made in-person)serv Services and other payments (in-person)p2p Person-to-person payment

Transaction types are grouped as follows:

bp Bill payment i.e. sum of abp, obp, ipbpnonbp Non-bill payments, sum of op, rp, serv, and p2p

2.2.3 Payment adoption

The suffix adopt is used in variables that indicate adoption of accounts or payment instruments. It isrecommended that the data user use these variables, as the related concepts in the survey do not match one-to-one with these variables. For instance, the variable cash adopt is created from several survey variables.SAS code for creating these variables is available upon request.

2.2.4 Payment use

For each payment instrument and seven transaction types, respondents are asked to report their paymentuse behavior—how frequently they use a payment instrument for a specific transaction type. Therefore, atthe most disaggregated level, a payment use variable name consists of three mnemonic components: thepayment instrument (Section 2.2.1), followed by the transaction type (Section 2.2.2), and ending with thesuffix typ which indicates the variable represents the number of payments of that transaction type andpayment instrument made in a typical month. The variable tot pay typ is defined for each respondent asthe sum of all payments made in a typical month.

It is important to note that not all combinations of payment instruments and transaction types exist.This is because they were assumed not to be possible at the time of the survey. The following table illustratescombinations that do exist in the data and the corresponding combinations of mnemonic prefixes:

2.2.5 Flags for variables that were cleaned for outliers

The SCPC has many continuous variables. These variables come from survey questions where the respondentis allowed to enter a number into a box. For instance, we ask the respondent to tell us how many credit cardpayments they make for retail goods in a typical week, month, or year. Continuous variables in the SCPCare cleaned for outliers and edited based on algorithms described in the 2018 SCPC Technical Appendix.To indicate an edited variable, the prefix “f ” is added to the front of a variable name. A flag value of 0indicates that the particular observation was not edited. A flag value greater than 0 means the observationwas edited. If a value was edited, a variable of the same name but with the suffix unedited contains theoriginal value.

3 A note on histograms in this codebook

In order to display the histograms correctly, the data was trimmed at the 95th percentile. The right-mostbar displayed contains the cumulative frequency of observations from the 95th percentile (inclusive) to themaximum value.

In certain cases, the histogram may show a negative value. This occurs rarely, when the 95th percentileis equal to zero.
