Embracing the state vision aiming at fostering financial inclusion and transforming the economy into becoming less cash dependent, the National Payment Council issued a decree in 2017 to establish a national payment scheme. The scheme serves as a platform supporting financial inclusion and government initiatives. In line with the CBE directives, EBC has been entrusted with the mission to develop and operate a Domestic Payment Scheme with a national brand for payment cards “Meeza”.
More than 35 million
cardholders in Egypt enjoy a seamless and convenient payment experience using “Meeza” cards.
