Mobile POS terminals (on smartphones platform) may appear in Azerbaijan in the near future, President for Business Development and Cybersecurity of European Countries Hakan Tatl?c? said during "The Future is Now" online conference organized by MasterCard, Trend reports.

According to Tatl?c?, Apple Pay has been launched in Azerbaijan on November 2, which indicates the interest of global corporations to enter the market of this country.

"In Azerbaijan, about 80 percent of POS-terminals accept contactless payments, which made it possible to enter the market with this solution," Tatl?c? noted.
