Set up Bancontact Payment Method for a WooCommerce Store

Last updated on June 7, 2023

Bancontact is the most popular online payment method in Belgium. Online payments can be made with a Bancontact card or mobile app that are linked with the Belgium bank account.

The payment authorizations are done by redirecting customers to the Bancontact website or mobile app. Soon after, returns the customer to your website with a success or failure notification.
