What did the Central Bank say about electronic payments?

Opening the Jordan FinTech Festival on 23 September 2026, Central Bank of Jordan Governor Dr Adel Sharkas said electronic payments through CliQ, eFAWATEERcom and card purchases passed about 695 million transactions in 2025, worth more than JD 50 billion (CBJ news, Arabic).

What does this mean for you?

With about 2.39 million users, CliQ is an everyday way to pay in Jordan. If you use it to pay for Tether (USDT), these basic rules apply:

  • Limit: one transfer can be up to JD 10,000, and each bank may set a lower limit or a daily cap (JoPACC).
  • Name before you confirm: your bank app shows the recipient’s full name before you confirm. Make sure it is the name of the company you are dealing with.
  • No undo: the sender cannot pull a transfer back on their own; if you make a mistake, contact your bank, which may try to get it back amicably (CliQ FAQs).
  • Fees: banks offer CliQ free of charge for now, but each bank may set fees.
  • If you sell USDT: make sure the money has really arrived in your own bank account before you send USDT. A screenshot is not proof.

To buy USDT and pay with CliQ, read the guide to buying USDT with CliQ.
