This major milestone reflects the growing demand for fast, simple, and secure payment solutions in everyday life.
With IRIS P2P, users can send and receive money instantly, from mobile to mobile, without needing an IBAN – anytime, 24/7/365 – backed by the reliability and security of the interbank infrastructure.
The remarkable adoption of IRIS P2P is evident in the numbers:
The user base has increased nearly sixfold in less than five years – from around 700,000 at the end of 2020 to over 4 million today.
The volume of transactions reached 68 million in the first eight months of 2025, compared to just 787,000 during the same period in 2020 – a growth of nearly 86 times.
“Since the beginning of our term in January 2021, we believed in the potential of IRIS.
Today, surpassing 4 million users, IRIS P2P has proven this belief right, transforming the way people in Greece send and receive money.
Starting November 1st, 2025, IRIS will expand into all physical and online retail stores, bringing instant payments to the forefront of digital transactions.
And this is just the beginning,” said Stavroula Kampouridou, CEO of DIAS.
The phrase "Send it to me via IRIS" has become second nature to millions of users, who rely on it for quick and easy peer-to-peer payments.
We warmly thank every user who has embraced IRIS P2P, as well as our banking partners who continuously support the broader adoption of instant, interbank transactions.
DIAS remains committed to investing in critical payment infrastructure for Greece and Europe, with the goal of enhancing the security, speed, and interoperability of digital transactions.
