Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai has signed a decision approving a project on the development of cashless payment in Vietnam in the 2021-25 period.
The project aims to create positive changes in cashless payment in an economy of high growth rate; turn the practice into a habit of residents in urban areas and gradually in rural, remote and mountainous areas; and reduce cash-related costs.
It targets that the value of non-cash payments will be 25 times higher than GDP, the proportion of the payment method in e-commerce will account for 50 percent by 2025.
In addition, 80 percent of people aged 15 and above will have a transaction account at a bank or other authorised institutions.
Average growth rate in terms of quantity and quality of cashless payment transactions is projected to reach 20-25 percent a year.
Transaction that made via mobile phones hit 50-80 percent per year, with transaction values expanding 80-100 percent annually; and via the Internet grow 35-40 percent a year.
