Haiti, a Caribbean country situated on the island of Hispaniola, faces significant economic challenges and a fragile financial system. The country relies heavily on cash transactions due to limited access to banking services and infrastructure constraints. Digital payments are underdeveloped, and the adoption of modern financial technology is slow. Haiti’s payment landscape is predominantly cash-based, reflecting limited access to formal financial services and a lack of robust digital infrastructure. While credit and debit cards are used to some extent, especially by businesses that cater to tourists, cash remains the dominant method for transactions. Online banking and electronic transfers are relatively underdeveloped. Mobile money is emerging, but its widespread adoption is hampered by significant infrastructure limitations and concerns about digital security.
