Mika Rautio<p>"Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Estonia are rolling out offline card payment systems to provide a back-up if internet connections are lost, including due to sabotage, Bank of Finland board member Tuomas Valimaki said on Wednesday. ... Sweden's central bank told Reuters that it hoped to establish a system by July 1, 2026, that would allow Swedes to make offline card payments to buy essential goods in the event of disruptions lasting up to seven days."</p><p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/nordics-estonia-plan-offline-card-payment-back-up-if-internet-cut-2025-05-07/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">reuters.com/business/finance/n</span><span class="invisible">ordics-estonia-plan-offline-card-payment-back-up-if-internet-cut-2025-05-07/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cardpayments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cardpayments</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/businesscontinuity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>businesscontinuity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/offlinepayments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>offlinepayments</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/informationsecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>informationsecurity</span></a></p>

The solution will need to enable instant and final settlement, consecutive offline payments, the ability to pay in proximity in P2P or POS scenarios and include the possibility to fund and defund online (via a smartphone) or at an ATM, also using cash."</p><p><a href="https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2024/01/11/european-central-bank-shows-its-serious-about-enabling-digital-euro-offline-use/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">coindesk.com/policy/2024/01/11</span><span class="invisible">/european-central-bank-shows-its-serious-about-enabling-digital-euro-offline-use/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/digitaleuro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digitaleuro</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ecb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ecb</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cbdc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cbdc</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/offlinepayments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>offlinepayments</span></a></p>
