E-wallets in Iraq are experiencing rapid growth, driven by the increasing penetration of smartphones, expanded digital services, and government measures aimed at bolstering the digital economy while reducing reliance on cash. Digital transformation experts indicate that this surge is predominantly concentrated in major cities and among the youth, highlighting an urgent need for infrastructure development and public awareness in other areas. Public trust in digital transactions has improved due to advancements in banking systems, despite cybersecurity challenges such as phishing and limited security awareness. Government initiatives are expanding financial inclusion by linking services and salaries to digital platforms, providing easier access to financial services. Furthermore, digital transformation serves as an effective tool for combating corruption and tax evasion by documenting financial transactions and enhancing transparency. The success of this ecosystem requires updating legislation, strengthening cybersecurity, and fostering financial literacy among citizens.
