We calculate there has been a net change in merchant numbers within the K Road BID of 3 more merchants. * Change in merchants is the NET change. For example if you have 60 merchants in the first year and 80 merchants in the second year there is a difference of 20. This does not mean that you have had 20 new merchants join; it could be that you have had 40 new merchants join and 20 who have left giving you a NET change of 20.

Inputs to your Report Frequently Asked Questions What is the source of the data used in the Auckland Council Regional Spending Database? The data is primarily sourced from electronic card transactions made via Paymark network at each of the Business Improvement Districts operating within the Auckland Council boundaries. To determine information on the origin and types of customers spending in each market we have used data from BNZ MarketView. Details on both data sources are provide below. The spending values include GST, but exclude cash out with purchases. Withdrawals from ATMs are not included. Other payment types including cash, HP or automatic payments are also not included. About Paymark Paymark operates New Zealand s largest electronic transaction processing network. The company is jointly own by ASB, BNZ, the National Bank and Westpac. Around 70% of New Zealand s eftpos terminals are connected to the Paymark Network. For merchants on the Paymark Network we receive 100% of their electronic card transactions. We use an extrapolation of BNZ cardholder spending for merchants that aren t on the Paymark Network. BNZ MarketView BNZ MarketView is based on the eftpos and credit card spending of BNZ card holders in the New Zealand retail market. BNZ has around a 20% market share of the cards business in New Zealand, and typically accounts for approximately 14-15% of total spending by value. There are over 700,000 BNZ cardholders. BNZ de-personalises BNZ MarketView data by removing any potential identifiers i.e. names, addresses, account, or card numbers. These are replaced with a unique id, a meshblock number (based on the cardholders home address), and a demographic profile. The cardholder s age and gender are retained, but there is no way of identifying an individual cardholder. BNZ cardholders they are largely demographically representative of the country and distributed in line with the national population. They also spend everywhere, which includes retailers not on the Paymark network. We are able to BNZ MarketView s share of spending at Paymark merchants to estimate the value of spending at non-paymark merchants: Page 17 of 18

Inputs to your Report What card types are included? The data is drawn from all card spending using all card types. This includes all Eftpos cards, and all major American Express, Diners Club, MasterCard, Visa Cards. The data will also include electronic gift cards. How have the Business Improvement District Boundaries been decided? BID boundaries have been determined by the Council s Business Area Planning team, in consultation with the Research, Investigations and Monitoring Unit. How is domestic spending determined? Cards issued in New Zealand are identified in the database. Any transaction made in the Auckland Region, on a New Zealand issued eftpos or credit card, is assumed to be spending made by New Zealanders. How is international spending determined? From the Paymark s Market Reporting data it is possible to distinguish between New Zealand cards and cards issued by overseas banks. Overseas cards have a country code. We report the value of spending by the country of origin of the card, and by association, the cardholder. Does the data include GST? Yes. NB: From 1 October 2010, GST rose from 12.5% to 15%. This means there is a natural 2.2% increase in spending between periods using the old and new GST rates. Page 18 of 18
