Key Highlights

• A low rate of financial inclusion remains the main challenge for the wider adoption of cards in Pakistan. According to the World Bank, the number of adults in Pakistan with no access to formal financial services crossed 100 million in 2015 – accounting for 5% of the world’s unbanked population. The percentage of the population aged 15 or above with a bank account was 8.7% in 2014 – according to the World Bank’s Global Findex survey. To improve financial inclusion, the government launched the National Financial Inclusion Strategy (NFIS) in May 2015, which aims to expand financial access to at least 50% of the adult population by 2020. Pakistan has also received support from the World Bank Group in form of its Country Partnership Strategy (2015–2019), which offers reforms to improve financial inclusion. Improvements in financial inclusion will provide access to financial services such as current and savings accounts, and debit cards.

• In April 2016, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) – the country’s central bank – introduced the domestic payment scheme PayPak to compete in the local market with international schemes. The cards issued under this scheme focus on the domestic market, and thereby can only be used in Pakistan. The aim is to offer low-cost payment cards in order to bring more of the population under the purview of the formal banking system. PayPak has been introduced by 1Link, which is a consortium of major banks that is already providing interoperability services for ATMs, fund transfers and utility bill payments. PayPak also offers the provision of digital financial services such as making payments and deposits, obtaining credit, paying utility bills and purchasing goods and services using digital channels such as online, mobile and self-service kiosks.

• To promote secured payments, the central bank issued a guideline in June 2016 making it mandatory for card processing infrastructures – including automated teller machines (ATMs) and point of sale (POS) terminals – to be Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) compliant by December 31, 2017. According to this guideline, all card service providers are required to implement EMV standards on payment cards by June 30, 2018, and accept chip and PIN by December 31, 2018.
