The new EVO 2.0 wallet and Mastercard partnership advance the digital identity, payments and ambitions of EUDI Wallet 26 June 2026, 11: 47 am EDT › 124; Masha Borak CategorisBiometrics News › 124; Civil / National IDA › 124; The Government Services Master Card announced the launch of a Digital Country Partnership program in Moldova, advocating collaboration with the government on projects such as digital identity and payments, remotely on board the ship and the development of European digital identity wallets (EUDI). The initiative was announced on the edge of the Digital Summit in Moldova in early June, where Moldova introduced the latest version of the eIDAS-Compliant digital identity wallet. EVO2.0 is to be established for sale in June, where it was published in October 2014.

The partnership with Mastercard will help the Eastern European country to realise its digitisation plans, said the head of the Ministry of Eugenia Osmochescu, at the summit in Chisinau on June 5th and 6th. Moldova has already made significant progress in digital public services, with almost 80% of the services offered to online businesses. In 2025, digital public services saved citizens and businesses EUR 44 million (US $50.2 million). We know that no country can achieve this transformation alone.

Under the five-year agreement, the Romanian State

The most innovative ideas, technologies and expertise are created through collaboration, which is why we are building strong partnerships with global leaders like Mastercard, says Osmochescu, who is also the country's deputy prime minister. Mastercard intends to work with the Government of the Republic of Moldova in five main areas, including the digital economy, including payments and identity. Another project involves working with small and medium-sized enterprises (IMMs), freelancers and independent professionals to improve productivity, compliance, payments and on-board. The payment giant also plans to help the country digitise consular and diplomatic services through payments and cooperation in policy-making. Moldova has made significant progress in digitisation in recent years, and our ambition is to become one of the most advanced countries in the region, Osmochescu said. Mastercard's Country Digital partner with Moldova follows the signing of similar agreements in Romania.

The programme covers the leverage effect on public sector technology and data. In Romania, the company will play a greater role by directly participating in the development of a national digital wallet.

Under the five-year agreement, the Romanian State will retain ownership and administration of the ecosystem, while Mastercard Europe SA, incorporated in Belgium, will only serve as a provider of technical services.
