Quick and easy in-store mobile payments

Several banking app (e.g. KBC Mobile) and the Bancontact Pay app are widely used for omnichannel mobile payments. Significantly, users make those payments in-store, online and between friends. Bancontact Pay, the app for scanning a QR code and paying, is therefore very popular in Belgium.

Undoubtedly, the Bancontact Pro In Store API allows merchants to receive quick and secure digital payments at a very low cost.

In fact, Bancontact Pro can be included into the in-store customer flow in 3 ways:

1. Terminal and display

Firstly, the cash register display can show the customer a unique QR code. The customer can then scan the code with the KBC Mobile app or the Bancontact Pay-app. The app will show all payment details, so the customer can review and confirm. After that, the cash register display will show the payment status.
The Bancontact Pro developer guide has further technical details on terminal and display.

2. Receipt-based payment

A unique QR code can also be printed on the customer receipt. Similarly, the customer can then scan the code with his banking app in order to pay.

3. QR sticker
The merchant can also put a sticker with a QR code by the cash register. The customer can then scan the QR code to pay with the app.
