Person-to-person digital transfers in Fiji reached FJ$2.4 billion at June 2025, up from FJ$1.8 billion a year earlier, according to the Reserve Bank of Fiji. Active e-money users rose 6% to 694,938, and Vodafone Fiji’s M-PAiSA wallet handled more than FJ$6 billion in the financial year to June 2025.

Fiji has no specific personal data protection law. Cabinet has endorsed a National Privacy and Personal Data Protection Policy, and officials told a parliamentary committee in September that the legal framework is still being developed with Council of Europe support. Police have recorded 1,672 scam cases since 2017, with losses above FJ$1.3 million and 11 convictions.

Google’s new subsea cables, 5G and 114 rural universal service sites have widened access. The government has not set a date for the data protection bill, and amendments to the cybercrime law cannot proceed until it passes.
