The clock is ticking. Banks and payment service providers are obliged to carry out a Verification of Payee (VoP) before all Instant ayments and SEPA transactions from 5 October 2025.
The new rulebook for the regulation is expected at the beginning of October. By then at the latest, banks and payment service providers will no longer be able to avoid dealing with the issue and deciding on a solution. The new security feature "VOP "Verification of Payee" for all SEPA payments can lead to significant changes to existing payment transaction processes. We shed light on the various options.
