Bancontact availability

Site URL: http://www.slagerijbonne.be

Hi there,

I'm having the issue that I have connected to stripe for payment acceptance. Stripe accepts bancontact, but squarespace doesn't support bancontact. That's quite annoying as I did a whole website setup (over 120 products) and now I'm having this totally unexpected issue. Can this be added to the accepted payment methods?

Kind regards,

Arno Bonne

Squarespace don't support the full range of payment options that Stripe do and unfortunately you cannot change this, even with code.

If you need Bancontact, alternative commerce options include Shopify (instead of Squarespace) or Shopify buttons on Squarespace.

I am in the same situation.. I have to admit that is it really annoying, Squarespace isn't made at all for Europe. There is a bunch of features missing for non-american websites!

Guess we have to switch on Shopify or Woocommerce...

Same issue here... Strip does support Bancontact and QR code transactions but Squarespace won't allow it.

Most VIsa and Mastercard card are credit cards in Belgium and customers are reluctant to use it.... 😕 I guess Shopify is the only solution.. It's weird that Stripe supports a payment method and Squarespace won't...

I am in the same situation as well.. seams Squarespace isn't made at all with Europe in mind!!!!😤

Guess we have to switch to another platform 

Apparently WIX is ahead of Squarespace and accepts Bancontact payments. 

Same issue. I'm really giving up on Squarespace

I have been asking for the Bancontact option for 6 months. But always the same answer: "We will send the information to our development team." If they don't need our European customers, we will go to Shopify. Only option.

Thanks squarespace.

I've been advocating for better integration with european payment methods for several years (here's a post I wrote 3 years ago!) but this isn't something Squarespace has been able to prioritise.

As I mentioned above, if you need Bancontact in the near future, you'll be better considering an alternative solution, such as Shopify (instead of Squarespace) or Shopify buttons on Squarespace.

Hi,

I have an existing stripe account where there are several payment methods activated, such as visa, credit card, bancontact, ideal...
When I activate this stripe account through the shop, it only shows the payment method: visa, credit card.
Is there a possibility to use a plug-in to show the other payment methods (bancontact, ideal)?

Grtz

Apart from PayPal, Squarespace only supports Stripe for bank card payments, Apple Pay and AfterPay/ClearPay. You cannot take other types of payment via Stripe using the Squarespace checkout. This cannot be changed using third party plugins or code.

That is very unfortunate.
