"We are delighted to report about our pivotal role in the launch of the Central Bank of Hungary's (Magyar Nemzeti Bank, MNB) pilot retail Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) project. This project is the first live retail CBDC pilot project in the European Union, placing Hungary and Perfinal at the cutting-edge of digital currency innovation."

The Magyar Nemzeti Bank (MNB) and the Money Compass Foundation launched a new version of the Student Safe mobile app, to increase financial literacy and strengthen digital financial inclusion among 8 to 14 year-olds. The new app, operated by the MNB and involving commercial banks, is now able to handle real money in the form of an MNB-issued central bank digital currency (CBDC). By successfully completing quizzes children can collect "tallérs" that can be redeemed for webshop (eMAG) vouchers. In addition, the new app allows users to transfer funds to bank accounts, and make QR-code payments. Parents can also send their children forints or student tallérs. https://penziranytu.hu https://perfinal.com
