A review of electronic transactions processed during the last calendar month (Jan. 20 - Feb.18) showed that businesses have almost returned to the pre-COVID era in both the volume and value of transactions.
First cases of coronavirus in Iran was reported in the corresponding month last year. Data released by Shaparak -- the nationwide electronic payment network- indicates that the number of transactions increased 27% in the month to Feb.18 compared with the same month in 2020.
Close to 2.93 billion transactions worth 5,091.31 trillion ($20.36 billion) were processed via Shaparak in the month, the highest in the past two years, according to data compiled by the Eghtesad News website.
