Fiserv Small Business Index declines two points to 148

Small business sales grew +4.4% year over year, but declined -1.4% month over month

MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- (NYSE: FI), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology, has published the for June 2025, with the seasonally-adjusted Index declining two points to 148. Year-over-year sales (+4.4%) remained strong in June while month-over-month sales (-1.4%) declined, re铿俥cting a slowdown in consumer activity.

Foot traffic (transactions) followed a similar trend, growing (+2.2%) year over year but slowing (-2.0%) month over month. Average ticket sizes grew significantly (+2.1%) compared to 2024 and rose (+0.6%) month over month, particularly in non-discretionary categories where consumers continue to spend.

"Small business sales continue to be impacted by economic uncertainty, causing many consumers to spend with more caution,鈥� said Prasanna Dhore, Chief Data Officer, Fiserv. 鈥淒iscretionary spending declined again in June, and consumers diverted more dollars to the essentials.鈥�

Services Continue to Outpace Goods

Compared to June 2024, sales of Services (+5.2%) outperformed Goods (+2.3%), an ongoing trend for 2025. Service-based businesses seeing strong year-over-year growth included Food Manufacturing (+11.7%) and Professional Services (+9.0%).

Compared to May 2025, Services (-1.2%) declined, though not as much as Goods (-2.0%). Some service-based categories showed month-over-month growth, including Administration and Support Services, Education, Hospitals, and Rental and Leasing Services.

Declining Foot Traffic Slows Restaurant Sales Growth

Consumer spending at small business restaurants grew slightly (+0.4%) year over year while experiencing sharper declines (-2.6%) when compared to May 2025. Month-over-month sales declines were the result of foot traffic slipping (-2.5%) compared to May, which had already seen a -5.6% drop from April. This directly affected sales, despite average ticket sizes (-0.1%) remaining relatively flat.

Retail Growth Cools in June, Despite Year-over-Year Strength

In June 2025, retail sales decreased (-1.7%) month over month, while growing (+1.7%) year over year. Transactions followed a similar trend with a month-over-month decrease (-1.0%) and year-over-year growth (+1.9%).

The only retail subsector with month-over-month gains was Food & Beverage Retail (+0.9%). Year over year shows a more positive story, as most retail subsectors continued to see growth, including Furniture, Electronics and Appliances (+4.5%), Food & Beverage Retail (+4.1%), and Sporting Goods (+3.4%).

Smaller States Drive Regional Growth

Compared to May, small business sales grew in 10 of 50 states, following a pattern of spotty growth nationwide. The most aggressive month-over-month sales growth was concentrated among smaller states, led by Alabama (+3.5%), North Dakota (+5.8%) and Alaska (+6.1%). Larger states, including California (-2.3%), New York (-4.2%) and Texas (-1.2%), experienced month-over-month sales declines.

Among major metropolitan areas, San Francisco (+8.5%) and Atlanta (+13.6%) were the strongest-performing large cities for small business sales growth year over year. Month-over-month sales growth among large metro areas was limited to Boston (+1.2%).
