You smartphone is the best device to pay contactless
Since the coronavirus crisis began, cash is no longer recommended as a means of payment. And even though the habit of paying by debit card or even “contactless” payments has been quickly adopted in shops, it’s often a different story at your doctor, psychotherapist or paediatrician. So how should you pay for your consultation if they don’t have a Bancontact/Contactless payment terminal?
A free Bancontact terminal on your phone
The ideal solution is a free app which both you and your practitioner can install on your own smartphone. Even if you're not with the same bank, you can use the built-in Bancontact feature to make payments as easily as a traditional Bancontact terminal.
Extra advantage: you don’t need to go to the ATM to take out cash and you can adhere to the current health recommendations.
