Evidence: Supports the monthly NPP payment counts summed into the eight annual points.
The 2018 observation is partial and should not be used as the base for a like-for-like annual growth rate. RBA payments statistics may be revised.
Monthly NPP payment counts were summed to annual totals. The 2018 launch-year point contains eleven months.
Every point uses the same Reserve Bank NPP transaction-count series and million-transaction unit.
