      1.2.4. Electronic money

      The banking system computerization in the beginning of 60s of the last century gave an opportunity to begin the usage of plastic cards. Electronic money is the monetary units electronically kept on the facilities (plastic cards) which are at the disposal of owners.

      The basic elements of the electronic money system are the automated clearing houses (ACH), the systems of automated cashiers (electronic booking offices and cash machines) and terminals set in the points of purchase. The electronic money emission is carried out by the bank which serves the plastic card owner. In one case the emission is provided by the monetary means which are kept on the owner’s account of the bank and the cost of a commodity immediately debits. And in the other the bank emits electronic money by client’s crediting and allows a plastic card holder to postpone payment of goods and services purchase.

      Notwithstanding that plastic cards were widely used in the World beginning from 60s of the XX^th century in Kazakhstan the market of plastic cards began to develop only in 1993 from the National interbank system of electronic cards foundation with the usage of microprocessing debit and credit cards on the basis of electronic wallets conception.
