To ease the hassle of carrying large sums of cash for Eid-ul-Azha, about 10 cattle markets in Dhaka and Chattogram now offer cashless transactions. Mastercard's Syed Mohammad Kamal highlighted this initiative to boost digital payments. Each market features a digital payment booth with POS machines, ATMs, MFS services, and agent banking.

This effort aims to enhance security and support the goal of making Bangladesh cashless by 2031 and "Smart Bangladesh" by 2041.
