Ingenico Payment Services has signed an agreement with Seamless regarding the mobile wallet SEQR. Its mobile payment services can now be offered to the thousands of Belgian web shops using the Ogone platform for online and mobile payments.
“Following the roll out of SEQR at McDonald’s in Belgium, we are very excited to also collaborate with Ingenico Payment Services to make online shopping smoother and safer through SEQR,” said Peter Fredell, Seamless CEO.

“We strive to make the online shopping experience as pleasant and easy for consumers as possible and SEQR’s mobile payment solution is definitely a powerful tool for this. We are delighted that we can add SEQR to our range of payment solutions,” explains Xavier Thiran, Head of Business Development, Ingenico Payment Services.
Belgium is the first market where Seamless will route payments for SEQR exclusively through SEPA. Consumers all over the Euro area can authorize access to debit their bank account when paying with SEQR, regardless of bank.
