Pay by Bank: The European Trend
Share this post:

A major trend in Europe is Pay by Bank. You pay directly from your bank account without a card, thanks to Open Banking.

Authentication happens via the bank app itself, with high security and without the headache of card numbers.

Compared to Cards

  • Faster payments with fewer steps.
  • Lower costs for merchants (no card network fees).
  • Lower fraud rates due to direct bank authentication.

This shift offers merchants cheaper and more reliable payment solutions.
