Consumers are facing strained budgets, which has an impact on consumer behavior.

“As escalating costs strain household budgets, PYMNTS Intelligence’s latest paycheck-to-paycheck study, ‘New Reality Check: The Paycheck-to-Paycheck Report: Struggling Consumers Go to Short-Term Strategies to Manage Higher Expenses,’ reveals that 78% of consumers have experienced higher costs for essential services and about two-thirds live paycheck to paycheck.“
