The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, located in northern South America, is facing significant economic and political challenges. This has led to a reliance on cash transactions due to limited access to banking services and hyperinflation. The government is working to stabilize the economy and promote financial inclusion, but digital payments are underdeveloped. Hyperinflation and economic instability have severely impacted Venezuela’s payment system. Cash, often in US dollars, is crucial, although digital transactions and mobile payments are increasing in importance amidst challenges with banking infrastructure. The situation is highly volatile and subject to rapid changes.
