Notes

The National Bank of Kazakhstan placed the Instant Payment System into operation on 20 June 2022, providing interbank transfers around the clock. The rollout was structured in two stages: person-to-person transfers by phone number first, followed by QR code payments and merchant acceptance. At commissioning nine second-tier banks had signed participation agreements, four of which had already opened access to their clients, with the remaining Kazakhstani banks connecting on an agreed schedule. On 19 July 2026, the official date set under the legislation, the Interbank Mobile Payment System (МСМП) operated by the National Payment Corporation opened interbank phone-number and QR payments nationwide; the National Bank of Kazakhstan reported more than 8 million transactions worth KZT 210 billion in its first month.
