Forty-one years after its establishment, Bancontact Cash has become one of the common household brand names in Belgium.

In Belgium, Bancontact sits right at the top with other huge brands like Jeep, Kodak, and Bic. Simply put, Bancontact is the Belgium electronic payment market leader. As of the start of 2017, it was reported that there are now more Bancontact cards in Belgium than Belgians.
