Payconiq International S.A. is a Luxembourg-based company developing a mobile payment and payment processing platform, active in Luxembourg and Belgium. Since October 2023, it has been controlled by The European Payments Initiative (EPI).[1]

Payconiq had the initial support of ING Bank, which was joined later by Belgian banks KBC Bank and Belfius,[2] and launched its first minimum-viable product in Belgium, in 2015.[3] The company discontinued its services in the Netherlands on 1 January 2022.[4]

The less complete mobile app is today a more fleshed-out platform offering multi-country payment solutions in Benelux, through different types of integration: stand-alone apps, bank app integrations and more.[5]
