What is a payment account?

A payment account is an account taken out with a service provider, also called PSP, or with a bank. When a payment account is opened with a PSP, it cannot be debtor, overdrawn, or offer credit.

In fact, a payment account allows the following transactions to be carried out:

  • Payments by card or bank transfer
  • Cash withdrawals from ATMs
  • To cash checks or direct debits. You also have the option of receiving money by bank transfer or deposit
