Accessing Cash With BLIK
Fintech companies and digital banking solutions leverage Euronet’s global cash network and ATMs to bridge the gap between digital and cash payments. One example is BLIK, an in-app mobile payment method offered by most banks in Poland.
BLIK offers users payment security by supplying codes that can be used in place of debit card or bank account numbers for transactions. BLIK users enter the codes on POS devices and e-commerce websites for purchases and at ATMs and CDMs to withdraw and deposit money. The BLIK app can also send peer-to-peer (P2P) payments.
Of these activities, ATM withdrawals are one of the most popular for BLIK users, and Euronet’s ATM network in Poland of approximately 8,000 machines provides many of these cash payouts through the codes the BLIK app generates.
