The benefits of support e-wallets in Turkey
- Over 30% of Turks do not have a bank account and 58% don’t have a credit card. Only with preferred online payment methods can you reach these shoppers (PPRO).
- Even today, Turkish shoppers pay for almost 10% of all their online purchases, worth approximate $2.1 billion, using e-wallets (PPRO).
- The Turkish government and financial sector aims to make the country cashless by 2023 (Finance Digest), making support for digital payments even more crucial than ever.
