FAQ

What is the difference between Payconiq and Bancontact?
Payconiq and Bancontact are two different payment methods, with different market coverage, belonging to the same group. Consumers should be able to see them as separate options on the payment page.

Consumers can, however, save their Bancontact card in the Payconiq app and pay with it.
