Slovenia Proposes Law Ensuring Access to Cash and Electronic Payments for All Consumers

  • The Ministry of Finance and Bank of Slovenia proposed a new law (ZDUPS) to guarantee the right to use cash and regulate electronic payments at points of sale.
  • Consumers must be able to choose between cash and electronic payments, with access to basic banking services ensured nationwide.
  • Providers are generally required to accept cash, with exceptions for public interest and disproportionate banknote values, as per EU law.
  • The law mandates a network of cash points (ATMs, branches) with criteria for accessibility and limits on fees; consumers get up to five free cash transactions per month.
  • Providers must offer at least one electronic payment method at physical points of sale, with exemptions for small businesses, new entities, charitable sales, and technical/security issues.
