Se trata de un método de pago alternativo a las tarjetas de Visa, Mastercard y Amex. El Corte Inglés lo desplegará en breve. Leer
Four major Spanish retailers, including Inditex, Ikea, Carrefour, and Carrefour, are now accepting Bizum payments in physical stores. Bizum is an alternative payment method to Visa, Mastercard, and American Express (Amex). The Spanish bank Corte Inglés plans to roll out Bizum Pay in its large supermarkets and distribution companies, aiming to replicate the success of peer-to-peer payments between family and friends in physical commerce.
The goal is to capture a portion of the market dominated by Visa, Mastercard, and Amex. While the service is free for users, it comes with costs for merchants. Bizum Pay can be used at over 1.7 million Spanish stores, including brands from Inditex, Ikea, Carrefour, Eroski, Alcampo, Burger King, and Lidl. The pilot program in Soria began a few months ago, and the full rollout started this month. Over 1.7 million stores across Spain can accept Bizum payments.
