Acceptance Mark in Point of Sales Guidelines
We made this guide to help all Payconiq’s stakeholders (merchants, financial institutions and partners) accurately use and apply the Payconiq acceptance mark and the Payconiq by Bancontact product brand across all touchpoints. Because using the mark and brand correctly and consistently is key to ensure a seamless experience for consumers when interacting with and experiencing the brand.
The basics
Payconiq
‘Payconiq’ is used when referring to the payment method accepted by the merchant (and shown through the ‘Payconiq’ acceptance mark).
Payconiq by Bancontact
‘Payconiq by Bancontact’ is used when referring to the app Payconiq by Bancontact a consumer uses to pay with.
Colours
It’s important to keep the right colour balance.
Fonts
Use the same font for all our brand applications.
Logo’s and how to use them
Let the logo breathe.
Use among other acceptance marks
How to use the brand in combination with other acceptance marks.
Since Payconiq is the number one mobile payment brand in Belgium, we always position the logo first in the list.
QR code
A modern and fresh QR code.
The Payconiq QR is a branded QR code with a Payconiq logo and Payconiq magenta color. The branding of the QR gives trust and makes it easy for our consumers to recognize that they can pay with Payconiq. In the case that the QR code needs to be printed, black is allowed as a fallback color.
Instore

On a terminal
The terminal requires a branding frame around the QR code: consisting of a magenta border and the Payconiq logo. The frame is available in PNG or SVG.
On a receipt
Please note that the style of the QR code does not follow the default rules as described in the basics. That’s why the QR code on the receipt is placed in black with the recognizable infinity icon and Payconiq logo.
On a sticker - fixed amount
Even when you use a fixed payment amount, for example in case of donations, Payconiq is the perfect solution.
Online
Payment button on a checkout page
