Financial cards develops positively as banks expand geographical coverage

Financial cards and payments in Egypt continued to perform positively in 2018, despite facing challenges such as relatively low card penetration rates, underdeveloped payment infrastructure, a large rural population and the strong presence of traditional retailers in the country. The market as a whole benefited, as banks increased the geographical coverage of their branch and ATM networks.

Central Bank of Egypt works to increase financial inclusion via digital services

The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) is committed to increasing financial inclusion via digital services. To this end, it has introduced new regulations for mobile payments, and also approved the launch of QR code payments.

Egyptians gain confidence in electronic payments and transfers

In line with improvements in financial awareness and education, Egyptians are steadily gaining confidence in the banking system. As a result, a growing number of consumers are now willing to make electronic transfers and payments.

Telecommunications firms poised to be key players in mobile payments landscape

As of October 2018, the CBE had received 13 applications for QR code licences for mobile-based payment solutions. These applications came from both banks and telecommunications companies.

Expansion of financial cards and payments set to continue

The outlook for financial cards and payments in Egypt over the forecast period is broadly favourable. The entire market will continue to benefit from economic improvements and efforts by the government, banking institutions and other industry players to increase financial inclusion, particularly via digital services and m-commerce platforms.
