Wish the UK had access to wero. Much as I like my Amex card a non US alternative would be nice as secondary option.

Interesting, I didn't know that the UK wasn't going to be a part of Wero. You still have SEPA though right?

Hopefully this comes with time.

I expect most businesses that accept IDeal in the Netherlands will accept Wero, because they already have the code for it. I've been paying with IDeal for a long time.

> because they already have the code for it

That's not how it generally works in most businesses.

At least some do not. I have been presented “IDeal/Wero” QR code which were unreadable for my banking app (which supports Wero).

Yes some unfortunate choices were made a while back. Plus I'm a EU citizen so not having access to EU sovereign payment mechanisms is a bit...sigh

Quick google says yes, though I've never encountered it in real life / seen a merchant offer it. That may just be failure on my part though...will keep an eye out for it!
