2020 IMPACT

The use of debit cards as ATM withdrawal tools comes to the fore due to COVID-19

The presence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Morocco during 2020 led to strong growth being recorded in the use of debit cards, with increases seen in debit card transactions value and volume over the course of the year. The use of debit cards as tools to withdraw cash from ATMs spiked massively during the early stages of the COVID-19 quarantine lockdown, remaining high during the year as many Moroccans sought to stock up on cash in response to the COVID-19 situation.

Debit cards are increasingly used as direct payment tools at points of sale

Growth in debit card transactions during the year was also spurred by the strong increase seen in the use of debit cards as payment tools in both the proximity and remote environments. It is important to consider that Morocco’s banked population is substantial, standing at 21.

The primacy of cash continues to suppress the use of debit cards

Debit card usage remains limited in Morocco and the main reason is the general lack of EFTPOS payment infrastructure at points of sale, which inhibits the ability of consumers to pay with financial cards. The majority of retail stores, consumer foodservice establishments and governmental institutions still deal exclusively with cash and thus debit cards are mainly used to withdraw cash from ATMs.
