Market Highlights
- The outbreak of Coronavirus has resulted in consumers opting for online channels to purchase essential goods. Russian online retailer Wildberries launched its online store in the country in January 2020; due to COVID-19 it observed a 260%+ rise in sales in April 2020 compared to March 2020. Meanwhile, many online retailers are upgrading their products and services to satisfy consumer needs during this difficult period. For instance, in April 2020 Polish supermarket chain Stokrotka ventured into e-commerce and launched a click-and-collect service, enabling customers to select products online and collect them at their nearest store.
- The rapid increase in digital-only banks is driving competition in the banking space, thus helping to boost debit card holding. Germany-based N26 and UK-based Revolut entered the Polish market during Q4 2018. N26 offers a free standard account for individuals and an N26 business account for corporate customers, along with a free Mastercard debit card. It also plans to launch its premium cards N26 Black and N26 Metal in Poland. In March 2020, Revolut launched the Revolut Junior app to help boost financial literacy among children. The app offers a Junior bank account and a Revolut debit card, and notifies parents of their child's spending.
- As part of the government's financial inclusion efforts that focus on significantly increasing the number of bank account holders in the country, regulation was enacted regarding employee remuneration. With effect from January 1, 2019, the government mandated that an employee's salary or wage must be paid via bank transfer, unless an employee has submitted a request for another payment method. If employees do not have a bank account, they are entitled to open a basic payment account that offers banking services without any additional fees. Growth in the number of bank accounts results in a rise in debit card adoption and usage.
