About
Baridi Pay (Barid PAY) is the QR-code payment function of BaridiMob, the mobile app of Algérie Poste, Algeria's postal operator, launched on 22 August 2020. It is not a separate wallet: the customer scans the merchant's QR code in BaridiMob and the amount moves straight from their CCP postal cheque account to the merchant's account, with confirmation by SMS. It requires a CCP account, an Edahabia card and a phone number registered with Algérie Poste. The postal ministry counted about 4.5 million BaridiMob subscribers and 13.7 million Edahabia cards in September 2024. Algérie Poste relaunched QR payments in June 2025, starting in pharmacies and local shops.
