On December 7, 2016, Algérie Poste launched the Edahabia card, which can be used to carry out all types of financial and commercial transactions via the Internet, withdraw cash from ATMs and pay for purchases in shops equipped with Eftpos terminals. The card is issued to CCP1 account holders.[2]
On May 24, 2018, Algérie Poste is launching the first mobile post office for the month of Ramadan at the Promenade des Sablettes in Algiers. The mobile office is set up in an SNVI bus specially fitted out for Algérie Poste.[3]

On March 21, 2021, the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, ordered the closure of commercial accounts and a ban on opening them with Algérie Poste, with the exception of traders in the southern regions who have no bank branches.[8]
