Online banking in Spain works despite the blackout thanks to backup systems. But incidents occur in branches and ATMs. This was stated by the Central Bank of Spain, reports UNN with reference to Bloomberg.
Details
According to the Bank of Spain, payments are generally available. The TARGET system is working normally. The systems that manage most of the POS terminals in the country are also working. However, there is less activity, probably because retailers are running out of battery.
Meanwhile, Spanish commercial CaixaBank said its online services are working smoothly. Cards and POS terminals work if sellers have a working terminal.
