With IAPR Decision A. 1137 /06-09-2023, the establishment and maintenance of the Means of Payment Registry (EFT/POS) on the myAADE digital portal is defined along with the process of its continuous updating.p>
Specifically, the active (operational) EFT/POS of economic operators will be declared with automated procedures every ten days, through an application interface (API):
- by Payment Service Providers (ACQuirers) responsible for settling payment transactions with payment cards and
- by Network Service Providers (NSPs) that provide, install, and manage EFT/POS terminal equipment.
Whereas Economic Operators (Businesses) that use EFT/POS (Payment Services Users):
- are requested to submit a Means of Payment Declaration for all the EFT/POS they use, exclusively and only in the event that:
- either the above Providers did not declare or did not amend the details of any registered Means of Payment
- either the Payment Services Users consider the information declared by the Providers to be inaccurate
During the initial application, all active EFT Means of Payment data elements of Article 3 of A. 1137/2023 are transferred to IAPR. In each subsequent submission, only the data of each addition/amendment/deletion within the reference period are transferred.
Initial application date for the relevant obligation is set for 22 September 2023, with data related to active Means of Payment as of 10 September 2023. For the period from 11 September to 30 September 2023, the relevant declarations are to be submitted by 5 October 2023.
Initial application date for the relevant obligation is set for 26 September 2023, with data related to active Means of Payment as of 10 September 2023. For the period from 11 September to 30 September 2023, the relevant declarations are to be submitted by 5 October 2023.
Initial application date of the relevant obligation is set for 17 November 2023, for data related to active Means of Payment as of 30 September 2023.
Transmission of data from Payment Service Providers (Acquirers) and Network Service Providers (NSPs) takes place:
- by the 15th day of each month with a reference period from the 1st to the 10th day of the same month.
- by the 25th day of each month with a reference period from the 11th to the 20th day of the same month.
