Scope

- The Egyptian government is taking steps to encourage electronic payments. In September 2018 it passed new regulation mandating the use of electronic methods for payment of government fees above EGP100,000 ($5,611.67). Effective from January 2019, cheque and cash payments will be abandoned for payments above the specified limit; a penalty of 10% of the payment value (up to a maximum of EGP10,000 [$561.17]) will be levied on users who fail to submit payments to government agencies by electronic means. The government also plans to launch an e-portal for government services by December 2018 to further promote the use of card-based payments. To support these initiatives it is working to develop the infrastructure needed for the system, which includes internet lines, training of government employees, distribution of point of sale (POS) terminals, and electronic cards.
- Financial inclusion is one of the government’s top priorities, and it has taken steps to bring the large unbanked population into the formal banking system. As part of Arab Financial Inclusion Day (which was held between April 27, 2017 and May 4, 2017) the CBE directed Egyptian banks to make efforts to attract unbanked consumers. Activities included the presentation of banking products in remote areas and offering bank accounts for free or for a minimal fee. Banks such as Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) allowed individuals to open bank accounts without requiring a minimum balance or administrative fee at its branches and microfinance units across the country. Overall, 80,000 new bank accounts were opened during the program.
- To expand the Egyptian e-commerce market, in 2017 the government launched the National E-commerce Strategy for Egypt in partnership with the UN Conference on Trade and Development and private sector players including Mastercard. The strategy aims to double the number of businesses selling products and services online by 2020. To this end the government has proposed various solutions, including the creation of an e-commerce hub, the launch of a business-to-consumer e-marketplace, and the development of rural e-commerce.
