About
CIB (Carte Interbancaire) is Algeria's domestic interbank bank-card scheme, managed by SATIM, the interbank transaction and card-processing company whose 18 member banks include BNA, CPA and BEA. Member banks issue the chip cards in standard and gold tiers, and cardholders use them with a PIN at ATMs and POS terminals, for bill payments and at certified online merchants inside Algeria. It is separate from Algérie Poste's Edahabia card, although the two now interoperate. GIE Monétique counted 4.24 million CIB cards in circulation in 2025, a year in which online card payments in Algeria rose 38% to 27.1 million.
