"I am pleased to share some good news with you: finally, starting today, Apple Pay and Google Pay payment services have been launched in Uzbekistan," she wrote.
The introduction of these services marks a significant step in Uzbekistan's integration into the international digital payments ecosystem.
Earlier, during a meeting with Google Vice President Karan Bhatia, Saida Mirziyoyeva discussed creating the necessary legal and technological conditions for utilizing international payment systems.
Apple Pay and Google Pay services allow citizens and foreign guests to make contactless payments via smartphones. This will simplify daily transactions, reduce the need for cash, and create convenience for tourists.
Furthermore, the launch of international digital payment services opens up new opportunities for expanding Uzbekistan's participation in global technological cooperation and developing its digital payment infrastructure.
