BLIK

Intro

BLIK is the most popular mobile payment method in Poland for online payments. It enables e-commerce payments, POS payments (including contactless payments), ATM cash withdrawals, and mobile P2P payments.

BLIK is linked to a bank account rather than a physical card. With 90% of Polish bank customers having access to BLIK through their banking apps, it offers a broad reach and convenience.

To complete a payment with BLIK, customers generate a unique 6-digit code within their banking app and enter it at checkout. They then confirm the transaction in their app, ensuring seamless and secure authentication without third-party involvement.

Integrating BLIK is simple and requires only a few additional properties in the request. You can easily enable BLIK payments through Hosted Checkout Page solutions, plugins, or direct API integration.

Contact your account manager or our support team: request the activation of the BLIK payment method.
Go live: before going live, ensure that all API endpoints and credentials are switched from the test to the production environment.
Failure to do so will result in unsuccessful transactions.
