Kantite ATM nan peyi Espay te piti piti diminye nan nivo peyi a te wè nan ane 2002.

Bank nan peyi Espay Diminye ATM
The number of ATMs in Spain has dropped to its lowest level since 2002, when the network had 1,795 more ATMs than it has today. According to a recent rapòte from the Bank of Spain, the network had 48,081 ATMs at the end of the third quarter of 2021.

Pouse pou dijitalizasyon
The Spanish government has been reducing the amount of money that can be paid in cash per transaction. Last year, Spain’s antifraud law, which also regulated some issues regarding cryptocurrency assets, passed controls for cash payments depending on the type of transaction. The aforementioned law established that payments in cash could only be made up to the limit of €1,000. Sidestepping this law could result in sanctions of 25% of the payments made, which would be paid by each party to the transaction.
Sepandan, medya lokal yo fè konnen devlopman sa yo ta ka afekte sitwayen Panyòl nan zòn riral yo yon fason disproporsyonel, ki se moun ki plis depann de lajan kach pou bezwen chak jou yo.
The recent push has driven more and more residents of the country to digital payments. For example, the national survey for cash payments, carried out July 2021, jwenn that only 35% of the surveyed citizens used cash for payments. This constitutes a significant change compared to how payments were made in 2014, where 80% of citizens used cash as a payments tool.
While cash usage has gone down, Spain still uses more cash for payments than countries like Sweden, where mwens than 10% of the population uses physical paper and coins to pay.
