For Decathlon, the move is about more than adding a payment button. It sees Wero as a way to offer customers a secure, simple and seamless payment experience, while supporting a stronger and more competitive European payments ecosystem.

C’est l’esprit que nous avons voulu donner à notre présence à VivaTech cette année. Avant-hier, sur les Champs-Élysées, nous avons eu un avant-goût de l’énergie qui animera Paris dès l’ouverture du salon. Une énergie portée par celles et ceux qui innovent, entreprennent, transforment et imaginent les solutions de demain. Depuis la toute première édition de VivaTech, BNP Paribas est au rendez-vous. Dix ans plus tard, notre conviction reste intacte : l’innovation est avant tout une aventure collective, nourrie par les échanges, les rencontres et les partenariats. Partenaire des entreprises partout en Europe, nous accompagnons chaque jour celles qui construisent l’économie de demain. Cette proximité avec l’écosystème de l’innovation se traduit concrètement : aujourd’hui, nous accompagnons près de 90% des entreprises du Next40. Durant toute la semaine, l’Innovation café by BNP Paribas accueillera startups, clients, partenaires et experts autour des grands sujets qui façonnent l’avenir de nos économies. Nous serons également fiers de mettre en lumière #Wero, la solution européenne de paiement qui illustre la capacité des acteurs européens à unir leurs forces pour bâtir des infrastructures innovantes, performantes et souveraines.

    🇫🇷 BoursoBank will bring Wero P2P payments to millions of new users across France soon. As one of the country’s most widely used banking apps, BoursoBank’s integration of Wero gives us full coverage in the country.  This move reflects a broader shift in expectations, as consumers in France and across Europe increasingly see seamless payment solutions as a standard feature rather than a “nice to have”. The adoption of Wero by major institutions like BoursoBank signals that demand is consolidating around autonomous, interoperable, real-time European payment experiences.  Read more: 👉 https://lnkd.in/gny945Gd EPI Company Boursorama #DigitalPayments #P2P

    ❗ We are seeing a rise of phishing scams in online marketplaces. Important reminder: Wero payments are instant and never require validation via external links.

    ⚠️ Stay vigilant against phishing scams. ⚠️ Vendre en ligne ? Attention aux faux paiements Wero. Fraudsters are increasingly targeting sellers on online marketplaces by pretending to send a Wero payment. Here's how the scam works: -> A buyer claims to have sent you a Wero payment. -> You receive a link asking you to "validate" or "confirm" the payment. -> The link leads to a fake Wero website designed to collect your personal and banking information. Always remember: ✅ Wero payments are instant and appear directly in your banking app. ✅ You do not need to validate or accept a payment to receive money via Wero. ✅ Wero will never ask you to enter your banking details to receive a payment. ✅ Always be cautious of websites that could be imitating Wero or your bank. Do not click on the links. ✅ Report suspicious messages via the Wero app or your bank app. If in doubt, always check your banking app directly and never share your credentials through a link received by SMS, email or messaging apps.

Des fraudeurs ciblent actuellement les vendeurs sur les plateformes de petites annonces en se faisant passer pour des acheteurs. Leur objectif : vous faire croire qu'un paiement Wero est en attente afin de vous rediriger vers un faux site et récupérer vos informations bancaires. Pour vous protéger, retenez ces quelques règles simples : ✅ Un paiement Wero est instantané et visible directement dans votre application bancaire. ✅ Vous n'avez jamais besoin de « confirmer », « valider » ou « débloquer » un paiement pour recevoir de l'argent. ✅ Wero ne vous demandera jamais vos coordonnées bancaires pour recevoir un paiement. ✅ Ne cliquez jamais sur un lien envoyé par un acheteur prétendant avoir effectué un paiement. En cas de doute, vérifiez toujours directement dans votre application bancaire.

    🇪🇺 For the first time, leaders from BANCOMAT, Bizum, SIBS-MB WAY, Vipps MobilePay and EPI came together on Money20/20’s main stage to share a joint vision for the future of European payments. Together they outlined a clear roadmap and highlighted the innovation already driving interoperability across Europe. Representing more than 130 million users, they reaffirmed a shared ambition: to make payments for European consumers and merchants simpler, more seamless, and trusted at every step. This initiative is designed to grow. The strong interest from solutions such as Blik further demonstrates the momentum behind a collaborative approach to shaping Europe’s payment landscape. Just a few months after signing the Memorandum of Understanding and successfully completing a cross-border interoperability Proof of Concept, the discussion highlighted an important reality: interoperability is not only about strengthening European payment sovereignty. It is also about accelerating innovation, increasing scale, enhancing convenience and creating value for consumers, merchants and payment providers alike. Together we are connecting Europe’s leading payment solutions to create a stronger, more resilient, and competitive payments ecosystem. Thanks to Martina Weimert, Martin Azcue Lopez, Teresa Mesquita, Massimo Itta, Kim Fuglsang Kristoffersen and moderator Scarlett Sieber. And the Money2020 team.
