Abstract
In recent years, digital payment services have been actively penetrating the financial market of Azerbaijan. Payment cards have played an important role in the implementation of digital payments in Azerbaijan in recent years. For the majority of Azerbaijani citizens, payment cards have become a common payment instrument used in everyday payments for goods and services, as well as when making money transfers. In this article, the authors consider the issues and prospects for the digitalization of the payment system in Azerbaijan. New trends in the retail payments market in Azerbaijan are analyzed and the features of the policy to reduce cash payments in the structure of monetary aggregates are outlined. The author outlined his own views on the prospects for the development of the digitalization of the payment system of Azerbaijan in the new conditions of challenges. So, digitalization can become one of the drivers for the development of the payment system, as well as ensure transparency in the economic sector.
