How to set up
Integrating Bancontact Pro into a closed-loop system allows your event to move away from cash while keeping transactions lightning-fast. Here’s how you can bridge mobile payments with physical tokens to create a seamless spending experience for your guests.
Step 1: Choose partner
Partner with a technical provider to link Bancontact Pro’s API with your closed-loop software for seamless credit synchronisation.
Step 2: Select payment token
Choose the physical or digital format for your visitors to add funds to, such as wristbands, cards, or in-app accounts.
Step 3: On-site distribution
Hand out the cards or wristbands to guests upon arrival so they can scan QR codes and instantly top up their balance.
How it works
Visitors can instantly top up their wristband, card or account by scanning the QR code featured on the token. This digital link eliminates queues and allows for seamless, contactless spending across the entire event or venue.
Step 1: Scan to top up
The user simply scans the QR code with their Bancontact Pay or bank app to top up their card, wristband, badge or account.
Step 2: instant payments
Your system receives a real-time notification and the credit can instantly be added to the user's account.

Safe and simple
By using the Bancontact Pro top-up solution, you replace the risks of cash and physical handling with a secure, digital system. Users authorise every top-up through their Bancontact Pay or bank app using their PIN or biometrics, ensuring that only they can add credit to their account.
This digital approach creates a clear, automated record of every transaction, which helps prevent errors and fraud while keeping funds safe. Best of all, sensitive payment details are never shared, ensuring a private and protected experience for both you and your customers.
