Swedish communications regulator PTS has announced a competition starting on 07 December for ideas of ways to make it easier for more people to take up digital payments. E-commerce and use of various payment services has been increasing and use of cash in Sweden is falling, and older or disabled people, for example, are being left out.
The deadline for submissions is 25 February 2021. The winning ideas will be announced by midsummer 2021 and will receive up to SEK 3 million financing for 1.5 years.
