\nFiserv Small Business Index rises to 144; year-over-year sales grew +1.3%
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

MILWAUKEE, April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fiserv, Inc.<\/a> (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology, has published the Fiserv Small Business Index<\/a> for March 2026, indicating that U.S. small business sales continued to grow steadily in March, despite consumers being more selective in their spending. Higher average ticket sizes helped offset slower transaction volumes as small businesses closed out Q1 on solid footing.<\/p>\n

The seasonally adjusted Index rose to 144. Year-over-year sales grew (+1.3%) despite transactions (foot traffic) slowing (-1.3%). Month-over-month sales (+0.7%) and foot traffic (+0.5%) both grew slightly compared to February. With total transactions easing, sales growth was buoyed by higher average tickets, which grew both year over year (+2.6%) and month over month (+0.2%).<\/p>\n

\u201cMarch reflects a small business economy that remains durable, supported by continued growth in consumer spend, but with signs of cautious behavior,\u201d said Prasanna Dhore, Chief Data Officer, Fiserv. \u201cWith energy prices rising, households began weighing tradeoffs carefully. Their selectivity was visible with consumers eating out less and making more deliberate purchases.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Key Takeaways<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

\n Higher gas prices influenced spending decisions<\/strong>
\n
Geopolitical disruption sent Gasoline Station sales higher month over month (+10.3%), driven mostly by a jump in average tickets (+7.2%). Year-over-year sales (+12.7%) grew in line with the rise in average tickets (+12.9%). Consumers may have partially offset higher gas prices by moderating spend at Food Services and Drinking Places (-1.0% year over year). Limited-service restaurants saw sales decline year over year (-2.9%) as foot traffic fell sharply (-4.2%). Full-service restaurant sales were less affected, with sales growing slightly (+0.4%) and foot traffic declining (-0.3%) year over year.<\/p>\n

\n Retail sales accelerated from February, while year-over-year growth was modest<\/strong>
\n
Total retail sales rose month over month (+1.2%) and year over year (+0.7%). Gasoline sales accounted for most of the monthly gains. Building Materials (+3.5%), Motor Vehicle Parts (+1.6%) and Furniture (+1.7%) also contributed, with growth in these subsectors driven by higher foot traffic. Food and Beverage Stores (grocery) sales continued to soften (-0.5% month over month and -1.5% year over year) as consumers made more budget\u2011conscious purchasing choices.<\/p>\n

\n Discretionary and essential spending patterns were largely unchanged in March<\/strong>
\n
Essential spending outpaced discretionary spending for the 12th<\/sup> consecutive month, reinforcing a consistent pattern of prioritization among consumers. Discretionary categories grew year over year (+0.8%) and month over month (+0.8%); essential categories also grew (+1.9%) year over year and (+0.6%) month over month.<\/p>\n
