BankPay enables customers to pay directly from their bank account via Open Banking. Instead of entering card details, the customer selects their bank from a list, authenticates with their banking credentials, and authorizes the payment. Funds move directly from the customer’s bank account to your designated recipient account. Through PCI Booking’s Payments Library, you can offer BankPay alongside card payments and other methods on the same checkout page.

How BankPay Works with PCI Booking

When a customer selects BankPay at checkout, the Payments Library presents a bank selection screen. The customer chooses their bank, is redirected to their bank’s authentication page, and authorizes the payment. Once authorized, the payment is processed and PCI Booking notifies your system. No card data or banking credentials pass through your servers. BankPay supports CHARGE operations only. Tokenization and 3D Secure are not applicable to BankPay transactions.
