Portugal’s mobile payment ecosystem is extremely mature, with a digital payment penetration rate of 99.9%. In addition to international cards and mainstream payment methods, the local flagship MB WAY is particularly important, with over 6.5 million users covering nearly half of the population. The domestic interbank network Multibanco is also deeply integrated into daily payments. Shared power banks in Portugal are not only a solution to “battery anxiety” but also a strong business opportunity aligned with the country’s advanced mobile payment ecosystem.
