Payment with Payconiq by Bancontact
Where is Payconiq by Bancontact available?
Pay easily online, in apps and in shops, and make transfers to friends
- Online: click on the Bancontact or Payconiq logo on the payment page
- In shops: scan the QR code at the checkout, on the payment terminal, or pay via the list of shops on your smartphone
- Transfers to friends: to pay, scan the QR code or click on "Contacts" in the app; to receive payment, click on "Receive"
For us, security is always a priority. Here's how to avoid online fraud and what to do if your smartphone is lost or stolen.
Purchases, bills and friends
You can pay by scanning the QR code at the bakery, on your electricity bill or on a friend's smartphone.
Loyalty cards
Register your loyalty cards in the app and you'll find them more easily when you need them. You can even add them to your home screen via widgets.
Pay with meal vouchers
Do you use meal vouchers to pay in supermarkets, restaurants or online? Good news: you can also use them via your Payconiq by Bancontact app!
Buy your ticket
You can buy SNCB train tickets and STIB bus, tram and metro tickets directly via your app. It's quick, easy and secure.
Create a kitty
Click on "Receive", then "Create a kitty", and send a payment invitation via text message, WhatsApp, or email to up to 30 people. It’s the easy way to organise a birthday or farewell gift.
Support a good cause
Via the "Scan For Change" service in the app, you can make a donation of €2 to a range of charities supporting causes such as health, children and nature. Small donations can make a big difference!
Want to make your life even easier?

- Pay for purchases in shops: search for the shop in the app's list, enter the amount and pay
- Split a bill with friends, even after you've left the restaurant: split the amount in the app and send your friends a payment request via text message, WhatsApp or email
Usage limits
Limits apply per payment and per card. These amounts vary depending on the type of QR code you scan with the app.
