    LK.PAY.PAYMENTS.TOTAL_VALUE_OF_CREDIT_CARD_TRANSACTIONS.Q: the series' own source against the Payments Bulletin

    CBSL's Payments Bulletin against the library's quarterly card and terminal figures: the bulletin's first print of a quarter is revised in the next issue (2025 Q4: POS terminals 136,581 then 138,043), and in 2022 Q2 its card values are rounded figures that differ from the library's by 2-8%. Only quarters after the library's last one are taken from the bulletin.
