EPI finally announced the brand name of this solution, wero, in September 2023. In October 2023, EPI completed the acquisition of Dutch payment scheme iDEAL, which will be rebranded as wero and replace iDEAL from 2025. wero will be available through EPI-member bank apps and as a standalone mobile app. Initially, EPI will support person-to-person and consumer-to-business payments, then online and POS payments. EPI plans to commercially launch wero in mid-2024 in Belgium, France, and Germany, followed by the Netherlands and other European countries.
  • Dutch banks are progressively switching from Maestro and V PAY to Mastercard- and Visa-branded debit cards. Since July 2023, Mastercard and Visa have no longer issued Maestro and V PAY cards. According to the Dutch Payments Association, more than 30 million Dutch debit cards bearing Maestro or V PAY branding will be gradually replaced by the end of 2028, and all Dutch payment cards will bear the Visa Debit or Mastercard Debit brand. Meanwhile, consumers with a valid V PAY or Maestro debit card can continue to make payments and withdraw cash anywhere in Europe.
  • The growing number of fintech companies and digital-only banks will drive competition in the banking space, thus helping boost debit card holding. In January 2022, Revolut launched its banking services in the country. It offers Standard, Plus, Premium, Metal, and Ultra accounts, as well as a Mastercard debit card in the country. Furthermore, in December 2023, the Dutch Payments Association (DPA) endorsed Revolut as its newest member.
