Key Highlights
Croatia adopted the euro as its national currency on January 1, 2023, replacing the Croatian kuna (HRK) and becoming the 20th member of the euro area. The transition was executed smoothly, with no disruptions to the payment system, cash shortages or long lines at banks and ATMs. Dual pricing, displaying both the kuna and euro, was implemented before the official switch to ease consumer adaptation. The European Exchange Rate Mechanism set a fixed conversion rate of EUR1 = HRK7.5345. Individuals could exchange up to HRK100 in banknotes and HRK100 in coins per transaction at no cost. However, an additional fee was charged for larger quantities.
Croatia’s NCSInst instant payment scheme was developed by Fina and was launched in October 2020. With Croatia adopting the euro as its new currency, the system was rebranded as EuroNCSInst on January 1, 2023 and it is aligned with the rules of the SCT Inst scheme of the European Payments Council. The scheme operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. EuroNKSInst settles funds in near real time, with recipient banks in the country required to credit amounts to customers within five seconds. There is a maximum of EUR100,000 ($108,126.93) per transaction and it supports both individual and business transactions. As of August 2024, there are seven participants in Croatia.
The use of payment cards is on the rise; the number of contactless cards in the country increased from 5.7 million in 2020 to 6.4 million in 2024e at a CAGR of 3.1%. The introduction of contactless cards on public transport is also aiding the adoption of payment cards. For instance, in April 2024, the payment infrastructure for transit and mobility provider Littlepay introduced a contactless EMV ticketing system in the bus network of the municipal utility provider Libertas in Dubrovnik, Croatia. This system allows passengers to use contactless bank cards, credit cards or digital wallets to pay for bus fares; making it more convenient for residents, commuters, and tourists. This initiative is part of a broader effort to modernize the ticketing system; providing flexibility and ease of use for passengers.
