iDEAL
Founded in 2005, iDEAL is the most popular online banking payment method in the Netherlands. iDEAL is a bank-to-bank transfer method supported by all Dutch core banks. Buyers can transfer money directly through the bank they select from iDEAL. The payment process is safe, fast, and convenient.
When paying with iDEAL, buyers select the bank they want to pay with from a list of banks. Then they are redirected to the bank's website to complete the payment. Buyers can scan a QR code on a web page using their mobile devices, avoiding the need to manually enter personal payment information.
