The number of POS terminals in Georgia has reached 130,000 as of May 2025, according to the latest data published by the National Bank of Georgia. This marks an annual growth of 6.5%, with approximately 8,000 new terminals added in the past year.
Over the past two years, the number of POS terminals in the country has increased by 29%, highlighting the continued expansion of digital payment infrastructure and the growing demand for cashless transactions across Georgia.
In addition to the increase in the number of terminals, the volume of transactions has also risen significantly. In May 2025 alone, 2.1 billion GEL was processed through POS terminals, which is GEL 500 million more than in the same period of the previous year.
This means that, on average, each terminal processed GEL 16,100 in May, equivalent to about GEL 538 per day. By comparison, in May 2024, the average monthly turnover per terminal stood at GEL 15,700 or GEL 523 per day.
The data reflects a broader trend of digital transformation in Georgia’s financial sector, as more consumers and businesses move toward electronic and contactless payment solutions. The rise in terminal usage and transaction volume signals a healthy and growing fintech environment and greater financial inclusion.
With the steady expansion of infrastructure and adoption of digital payment habits, Georgia continues to position itself as a regional leader in modernizing its financial services ecosystem.
