MXThe Mexican telecommunications regulator, Comisión Reguladora de Telecomunicaciones (CRT), has warned that failing to register phone lines by December could result in users losing access to digital banking services. The CRT reported that as of early July, approximately 65 million lines had been registered, leaving around 79 million still unregistered. This registration is crucial for verifying user identity and maintaining access to financial services such as mobile banking and two-factor authentication. The Banco de México (Banxico) is promoting cashless transactions through standardized payment apps, aligning with global trends toward financial inclusion via digitization. Authorities emphasize that registering phone lines under one’s name using documents like INE, CURP, or passport is necessary to retain digital banking privileges. The CRT extended the deadline for registration until December to prevent system overload and ensure uninterrupted service.

It focuses on technical and administrative processes rather than ideological stances, though the broader implications relate to national policy on financial inclusion. S
