A national payment system (NPS) is a set of arrangements and infrastructures that enables consumers, businesses and other entities to effect financial transactions, including making payments to one another and using the accounts and payment instruments issued by financial institutions. A well-functioned NPS also helps our country to achieves broader societal objectives, such as improving access to financial services for all citizens.

The Central Bank of Seychelles is mandated to regulate and oversee as well as modernize the NPS so as to provide a safe, reliable and efficient NPS. The latter will thus contribute towards achieving the objectives of the CBS in contributing to a stable financial system, thus containing and preventing financial crises.
