The Bulgarian government and World Bank entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in January 2012 in response. This represented an important step taken by the country’s government to draw on the World Bank’s expertise in developing and implementing strategies and programs to revive the country’s economy. GDP grew by 0.9% in 2013, and is anticipated to rise to 3.0% in 2018, which will be beneficial for Bulgaria’s cards and payments industry over the forecast period (2014–2018).

Prepaid cards recorded a CAGR of 24.99% during the review period, increasing from 461,513 cards in 2009 to 1.1 million in 2013. These cards are more beneficial to the country’s unbanked population, as they do not require a bank account to use. Central Cooperative issues virtual prepaid cards that do not require an individual to have a physical card. This card is created online, and can be used for the payment of goods and services. This removes the requirement for customers to visit a bank to collect the card. The bank also issues Prepaid Gift Cards to customers, which can be personalized and can be used to give gifts on different occasions. With the increasing number of prepaid cards being distributed in the country, this segment is anticipated to undergo positive growth, with 2.1 million cards estimated to be distributed by the end of 2018.
