This video shows you how it works, step by step.
QR code
At the cash register, say that you’d like to pay with the Payconiq by Bancontact app. You can scan the fixed QR code (with the Bancontact or Payconiq logo next to it) by the till, or you will see a QR code appear on the payment terminal.
Scan
Open the Payconiq by Bancontact app on your smartphone and scan the QR code.
Double-check
If you scan the QR-code with a Bancontact logo next to it, check the amount, choose the bankcard and confirm the payment.
If you scan the QR-code with a Payconiq logo fixed on the cash-register, then you still have to confirm the amount you have to pay.
Confirm and ready
Confirm with your face, fingerprint our PIN code and done! A payment confirmation will appear on your smartphone.
No QR-code? Some retailers are in the ‘Shops’ list. If so, you simply need to click on the name of the shop, fill in the amount and confirm by entering your PIN code.
Tap & Pay
Contactless
Want to make a contactless payment with the Payconiq by Bancontact app? You can in a single movement. Simply hold your Android smartphone right next to the payment terminal… and that’s it!
Before you start, turn on NFC in your smartphone settings and set Payconiq by Bancontact as the standard payment method on your smartphone. Don’t worry – you only need to do this once.
