Call for online and mobile merchants to participate in digital euro pilot now open
The Eurosystem has launched a call for expression of interest inviting e-commerce and mobile commerce (m-commerce) merchants operating in the euro area to take part in the digital euro pilot. The call follows the selection of payment service providers (PSPs) to participate in the pilot.
This is a unique opportunity for merchants to collaborate with the European Central Bank (ECB) and euro area national central banks to help shape the future of digital payments in Europe. By participating in the pilot, selected merchants will gain first-hand experience of a simulated digital euro ecosystem and their feedback will further shape the digital euro’s technical specifications.
