Coming soon 🌠 (fall 2023): payment requests from companies in the Payconiq by Bancontact app

Paying invoices smoothly and securely, that's what POM stands for. And making payments as secure and easy as possible, that's what the Payconiq by Bancontact app stands for. Online, in store or between friends, and soon also for the invoices you send to your customers.

Because, starting this fall, it will be possible to send your payment requests directly to your customers via the Payconiq by Bancontact app. Your customers will then receive and pay your invoice securely and directly in the app. All payment details are already pre-filled, reducing the risk of payment errors.

➜ Sign up and send your invoices to the Payconiq by Bancontact app as early as this fall.

One issue that this new service is actively combating is phishing. After all, the past few years marked a sharp increase in this form of cybercrime, with a major social impact as a result.

Some statistics:

• In 2022, as many as 6 million suspicious messages were reported to Safeonweb in Belgium, a third more than in 2021.
• Criminals thus captured a total of 39.8 million euros in our country. Scammers are also going about their work in an increasingly professional manner: they mimic the layout of invoices almost perfectly.

Invoice fraud is unfortunately on the rise.

In addition, another phenomenon is surfacing in the fight against unpaid invoices: 1 in 4 Belgians regularly miss invoices and fines because of an overflowing mailbox. Important e-mails are hard to find between all the spam and advertising. Among millennials, this trend is even more pronounced. They communicate primarily through social media and neglect their mailbox.

➜ So, together with Bancontact Payconiq Company, POM now proposes a revolutionary solution 🌠 to face these challenges.

Starting this fall, businesses will be able to send payment requests directly to the Payconiq by Bancontact app. This way, you reduce the risk of unpaid invoices and increase the ease of payment for your customers.

💡 Indeed, for more than 2 million Belgians, the Payconiq by Bancontact app is a trusted digital payment environment. In 2022, more than 275 million mobile payments took place via Bancontact or Payconiq.

⏩ Join +500 innovative organizations (energy companies, water companies, hospitals, schools, etc.) that will be using this new payment notification service from its launch in the fall of 2023.
