Paybis, a global cryptocurrency exchange and payment infrastructure provider, today added four local payment methods for buying crypto in Europe. Customers can now pay with iDEAL in the Netherlands, BLIK in Poland, Multibanco in Portugal and EPS in Austria. Cards and bank transfers remain available, but they are no longer the only options.

Key details of the rollout:

• Four new local payment methods live today: iDEAL, BLIK, Multibanco and EPS.
• No card details needed: customers confirm payment in their banking app or pay a Multibanco reference.
• More than 90 cryptocurrencies available, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and USDC.
• First wave of 13 local payment methods: Paybis will support more than 30 ways to pay once all are live.

Local Payment Methods at National Scale

The four methods operate at scale in their home markets, and their reach illustrates why payment coverage in Europe tends to be built country by country rather than continent-wide. BLIK had 21.6 million active users in Poland at the end of June 2026, according to its operator, Polish Payment Standard. iDEAL processed more than 1.5 billion transactions in 2025 and handled 71% of online purchases in the Netherlands, according to the Dutch Payments Association. The Multibanco network has around 13,000 machines across Portugal, according to SIBS, and EPS is offered by more than 11,000 online shops in Austria. For buyers in those countries, the practical upshot is that funding a crypto purchase no longer has to default to a card.

Four Methods, Four Markets

• iDEAL (Netherlands): bank selection and confirmation in a banking app; limit per payment of EUR 50,000.
• BLIK (Poland): six-digit code generated in a app; limit per payment of PLN 50,000.
• Multibanco (Portugal): payment reference paid at an ATM or in a banking app; limit per payment of EUR 5,000.
• EPS (Austria): bank selection and confirmation in online banking; limit per payment of EUR 10,000.

Simple Crypto, Paid Locally

Each method works the way it does for any other online payment in its market. The customer chooses a method at checkout and confirms the payment through their bank, or pays the Multibanco reference. No card details are needed. The purchased crypto is delivered to the customer's Paybis Wallet or to any external wallet address, and can be selected from more than 90 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and USDC.

“Europe does not pay one way. A customer in Amsterdam reaches for iDEAL, a customer in Warsaw reaches for BLIK, and neither should need a card to buy crypto,” said Innokenty Isers, CEO and Founder of Paybis. “Now customers in the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and Austria can pay the way they already pay for everything else online. Our philosophy is making crypto easy, and adding local payment methods market by market is how we do that.”

What Comes Next

iDEAL, BLIK, Multibanco and EPS are the first of 13 local payment methods Paybis is adding. Bancontact, KBC/CBC Bank and Belfius Pay in Belgium and Bancomat Pay in Italy follow in the next wave, with Swish, Przelewy24, Vipps and MobilePay coming after that. For readers tracking crypto access in Europe, that sequence maps out which markets gain local bank-based on-ramps next. Once all are live, Paybis will support more than 30 ways to pay.
