New research from Abbey shows that as many as one-in-ten credit card holders - that's three million people - use their credit card daily.
Of the 34 million Brits now in possession of a credit card, 54 per cent use their credit card once a week or more 35 per cent use their credit card once a month or less.
Abbey found that the most popular use for a credit card was for online shopping, with 61 per cent regularly shopping online with a credit card, but with only a slightly lower percentage (55 per cent) using their card on the high street.

Roger Lovering, managing director of Abbey Credit Cards, said: "There is no one way that people use their credit card and we see as many different spending patterns as there are people."
