What is a bunq.me link?

Hey bunqers 🌈 ,

bunq.me is the easiest way to get your money back: it works with any bank, and you can set your link up in seconds. You can even share your link as many times as you’d like through WhatsApp or other messaging apps – it never expires!

Note: Currently, we don't have the functionality to share payment requests through QR codes.

What is a bunq.me link?

A bunq.me link is a personalized link which allows anyone to send money to your Bank Account, simply by scanning the QR code or tapping on the link. 

After creating your bunq.me link, we'll set up your very own bunq.me page. When you share your link or someone scans your QR code, they’ll land on your bunq.me page. Here, they can:

  • Enter any amount they want to send you.

  • Add a description so you both know what the payment is for.

  • Select their favorite way to pay, like iDEAL or a credit card transfer.

To make sure your friends know it's you they're sending money to, your bunq.me page will display your full legal name, as you set it up in your Profile.

What's the difference between bunq.me and bunq.to?

While bunq.me is your personal payment link, designed for receiving money, bunq.to is a way for you to send money to someone without needing their bank details, like an IBAN. To send money with bunq.to, all you need is the phone number or email address of the person you'd like to send money to.

Think about it this way: bunq.me is for getting paid, and bunq.to is for sending money. Both easy, secure, and make managing money a whole lot simpler ✨

Payment Practicalities: 

  • We only accept Visa and MasterCard for card payments via bunq.me

  • bunq.me payments over €2000 can't be paid with iDEAL

  • bunq.me works with all banks. Is someone trying to pay you through your bunq.me link and is this payment not going through? Then there's likely an issue with the payment at the bank of the sender. We recommend contacting the other bank to help them solve this issue for you. Learn more here.

Naming Conventions: 

  • As long as a bunq.me name is not currently in use, you can get it right away 🙌

  • You can't disable or edit the possible payment methods of your bunq.me link or bunq request.

  • Keep in mind that if you disable your bunq.me link and want to enable it again later, another user might have set it as their own bunq.me link while you were away, making it unavailable for you 👈

  • Special characters aren't allowed.
