Wero in KBC Mobile
- Successor to Payconiq that also works in other European countries (already rolled out in Belgium, France and Germany)
- The money arrives in your account within 10 seconds
- Convenient using your mobile phone contacts list (no account numbers required)
What is Wero?
You can use KBC Mobile to pay or get paid remotely by your contacts who use Wero. You don't need the other person’s account number, just a mobile phone number.
Payments made with Wero go straight into your account (instant credit transfers). They can be made at any hour of the day and on any day of the year, including public holidays and bank holidays.
You don't need to install a separate app as you can activate Wero directly in KBC Mobile. All you have to do is tap ‘Offer’, select ‘Means of payment’ (under ‘KBC products’) and follow the instructions.
Important: Wero is scheduled to replace Payconiq. To ensure you can make payments just as easily in the future, act now and link your details to Wero.
How do you pay someone using Wero in KBC Mobile?
To pay someone face-to face, all you have to do is scan the QR code they show you. To pay someone remotely if they also use Wero is equally as easy – just select them from your mobile phone contacts list.
- Log in to KBC Mobile
- Tap ‘Transfer’ (blue double-arrow circle icon) at the bottom right of your screen
- Select ‘Transfer money’, type your contact's name and follow the steps
Tip: Allow KBC Mobile to access your contacts list. This lets you quickly see which of your friends and family can pay you with Wero.
