Frequently asked questions

Why does the app want to send me messages?

The Payconiq by Bancontact app will only send you messages in very specific situations and only in order to provide a better service. Examples of such situations include the following:

Reminding you that you have not yet linked a Bancontact card or bank account to the app
Reminding you that a card is about to expire or has expired
Informing you when someone has sent a remote payment
Informing you about new services

You can always switch these messages on or off via the settings on your device.
