That's really not many. And 90% of those I don't even know. But some of the "coming soon" seem like game changers for the common folk.

It is based off the Dutch system called iDEAL. Weโ€™ve been using it as our standard way of paying in web shops for about a decade.

Since iDEAL is behind this and itโ€™s already the standard way of paying online for all Dutch people, I expect it will simply be a matter of time before all Dutch people will pay with Wero.

When we pay with iDEAL we already see a screen saying (in Dutch) โ€œiDEAL will be renamed to Wero, nothing else will changeโ€

I hope the transition is as smooth as that, but we will see.
