On Tuesday, the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) announced that over 3 million transactions have been made through e-Psule since its launch in February this year.
The KRG’s electronic payment platform @epsule_payments has processed over three million transactions since the launch in February, increasing adoption of digital payments across the Kurdistan Region. This growth has been further accelerated by banking over a million citizens through the MyAccount initiative. We have partnered with leading banks and digital wallets across the country, and we plan to process 90% of all government revenues through e-Psule by the end of 2028. The platform brings the KRG a single source of truth for all government revenues — including electricity. Moreover, all revenue is audited by an external party to add an extra layer of quality assurance and transparency. Our thanks to Kak @mo_hawar and his team on this stream. The progress has been remarkable. https://t.co/Q0Oi1bS0UV

“Moreover, all revenue is audited by an external party to add an extra layer of quality assurance and transparency,” he added.“This growth has been further accelerated by banking over a million citizens through the MyAccount initiative.
“We have partnered with leading banks and digital wallets across the country, and we plan to process 90% of all government revenues through e-Psule by the end of 2028.”
Through e-Psule, citizens can pay their electricity and municipal bills using nine participating banks and digital wallet applications licensed by the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), with no additional fees, the KRG said.
The KRG plans to add more payment channels and government bills in the near future. It aims to capture 90% of all government collections by the end of 2028.
The KRG’s e-Psule program was launched by Prime Minister Barzani in February 2026 and is approved by the CBI.
