This article analyses the use of electronic money in Uzbekistan, as well as the factors influencing its development and the existing challenGES. Although the adoption of electronic payment instruments has significantly increased in recent years due to the growth of the digital economy, several constraints—including insufficient infrastructure, low digital literacy, and limited trust in the banking system—have been identified as slowing down this process. The study provides a comparative analysis of the experiences of Uzbekistan, Turkey, and Kazakhstan, and presents statistical data on chanGES in total bank deposits, the share of electronic money, and term deposits from 2017 to 2024. The findings indicate that despite the rise in the use of electronic money, its share within total bank funds has decreased. These trends are shown to be closely related to the development of digital infrastructure, security systems, digital literacy, and government regulatory policies. The author emphasizes the need to expand infrastructure, strengthen security measures, improve digital literacy, and enhance the legal framework to further promote the development of the electronic money market

The article analyses the dynamics of service structure, regional indicators and digitalisation efficiency in JSC “Uzbekiston Pochtasi” and its territorial branches for 2020–2025. The study relies on the statistical tables, regional comparisons and integral efficiency indicators presented. The findings show that periodicals and written correspondence still occupy an important position in the service portfolio, but their long-term growth potential is limited. The sharp decline in electronic money transfers indicates the need to reconsider the value proposition of postal financial services under competition from fintech and mobile banking applications. By contrast, positive changes in parcel flows, delivery speed, customer satisfaction and the share of digital orders confirm the feasibility of gradually shifting the postal system towards an e-commerce logistics and digital platform model. The article develops practical recommendations on regional clustering, minimum digital standards, KPI/SLA monitoring, and stronger integration of logistics and financial services
