Receipt of my Visa Debit card
- You should have received your PIN code, so get it ready.
- Use your Visa Debit card with your new PIN code as soon as you receive it:
- Make an in-store purchase and enter your new PIN code
- A withdrawal at a payment terminal (ING Luxembourg ATM)
This will activate contactless payments and automatically block your previous Visa Debit card.
Yes, the PIN codes are sent from France (Bouches du Rhône) and the Visa Debit cards come from Germany.
Receipt of my Visa credit card
- The first thing you need to do is use it in a store and pay by inserting the card into the payment terminal by entering your PIN. This will enable contactless payments.
- Your old Visa card will be automatically blocked for security reasons.
- If you have enlisted your old Visa card on merchant sites (e.g. Amazon, PayPal etc.), do not forget to make the necessary changes.
Yes, because the “physical” Visa Classic, Visa Gold, Visa Platinum and Visa Business cards come from Germany, whereas the “virtual card”, the Visa CyberCard comes from France.
You may encounter a technical problem with the synchronization of your new card and PIN code (incorrect PIN message at the time of payment).
To solve the problem, all you have to do is:
- Go to one of our ING Luxembourg ATM's, insert your new Visa card, and enter your PIN code (no further operation necessary).
or
- Make a withdrawal with your new Visa card by entering your PIN code on one of the ATM's other than ING Luxembourg. Be careful, when using this method, fees may apply.

Fraud
- What is fraud?
Fraud is the acquisition and use, by an unknown person, of card data or of the card itself (following theft or loss), without your consent and without your knowledge.
- Have you not completed the transaction yourself?
Pay careful attention to unsubscribed subscriptions/renewals, promotions and offers that have not been terminated, etc. Those are not fraud and have to be claimed directly with the merchant, or thru the Simple claim form.

Other frequently asked questions on cards
You will find below a comparison of the European Central Bank (ECB) reference rates and the rates we offer you for your foreign-currency payments by card (debit or credit) in the European Economic Area (EU Cross Border*).
- Personal Identification Number (PIN)
Choose a PIN:- that you commit to memory;
- that cannot be guessed even by those who know you well (avoid: date of birth, post code, etc.).
- Never:
- provide the PIN to a third person;

IBAN & BIC/SWIFT
IBAN stands for International Banking Account Number, a new international standard for a uniform structure of account numbers designed to make transfers within Europe more rapid and secure.
This new bank account number structure is being introduced for cross-border transfers between several European countries.
The BIC or Bank Identifier Code is your bank's international identification code (also called SWIFT code) which must be stated in your cross-border transfers. For example, the BIC for ING Luxembourg is CELLLULL.
An IBAN always begins with the ISO code of the country of origin, followed by a check digit (a two-digit validation number), a bank code and a bank account number.
In paper format, it is divided into several groups made up of four characters separated by spaces. The final group may contain fewer characters.
In electronic format, the spaces between the blocks are suppressed.
The IBAN length varies from country to country.
Since 1/01/2003, the IBAN is compulsory for transfers in Luxembourg and for cross-border transfers. For transfers in Luxembourg, the BIC appears in the pull-down menu on the Internet.
Since 1 July 2003, the BIC code is one of the criteria necessary if you want your transfers towards other European countries (or assimilated) to benefit from tariffs similar to these for an equivalent domestic payment. They have to comply with the 4 following criteria :
- in EUR;
- in which both the accounts held by the originator and the beneficiary are opened in one of the 28 EU Member States (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom) or in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway or Switzerland.
- giving a IBAN (International Bank Account Number);
- with shared costs (also referred to as SHA, standing for ‘shared’).
Your 6-figure customer number is found in the middle of the account number : the last 3 figures at the end of the 3rd block and the first 3 figures at the start of the 4th block.
Contactless payments
It is a technology that allows you to make a payment without having to insert your payment card into the terminal.
When the card is contactless-compatible, the contactless payment symbol (NFC) appears on the front of the card.
At any terminal displaying the contactless symbol.
Your card's contactless function uses short-wave transmission technology. To pay, simply hold your card a few centimeters away from the payment terminal displaying the contactless symbol.
Contactless payment will be activated on your card as soon as you have either made a contact transaction with a PIN code at a merchant, changed your PIN code, or made a withdrawal (fees apply for credit card withdrawals) at an ATM.
Yes, contactless payment is faster. For small everyday purchases (under EUR 50), you save time with contactless mode, as you no longer need to enter your PIN code. What's more, you don't have to search for coins or bills, and you don't have to wait for your change. For all other purchases (over EUR 50) made using contactless technology, you no longer need to insert your card into the terminal. This saves you time on all your payments.
No, it allows you to make all the payments you usually make. You choose the type of payment: pay contactless or insert your card.
Yes, as with all payments made with your payment card, all transactions are listed on your account statement, which specifies: the amount, the date, and the reference number of the merchant where you made the payment.
Yes, nothing changes; just insert your card and enter your PIN.
In Luxembourg, you can make all your payments, regardless of the amount, using contactless technology. For amounts under EUR 50, you do not need to enter your PIN. For amounts over EUR 50, you will be asked for your PIN. These limits apply in Luxembourg and vary from country to country.
No, it is impossible to make a contactless payment without meaning to. You initiate the payment by holding your card a few centimeters away from the merchant's terminal to validate the amount entered. Beyond this distance, your contactless card cannot be activated. You therefore remain in control of your contactless payments. Finally, all contactless transactions are completed with the issuance of a receipt.
No, there is no risk. As soon as the contactless payment is validated by bringing your card within a few centimeters, the connection between your card and the payment terminal is automatically and instantly interrupted. To make a new contactless payment, the merchant must repeat the procedure at the payment terminal by entering a new amount to be paid.
Random checks are carried out for security reasons for amounts under EUR 50.
Yes, your contactless card, like all payment cards, meets the same security criteria and offers you the same guarantees as your old card.
First, contact ING Luxembourg at (+352) 49 49 94 (24/7) to block your card. You are protected as soon as your card is blocked. In addition, contactless use of your card without a PIN code is limited to EUR 50 per payment and to a total limit of EUR 100. For purchases over EUR 50, a PIN code is required. This security measure ensures that you are the cardholder and limits the risk of fraudulent use of your card. If you are a victim of fraud, you will be protected by the same guarantees as with your current card.
Instant payments
An instant payment is a transfer in euro executed in real time (10 seconds) between two bank accounts located in a SEPA country*.
Instant payments are possible between payment accounts of banks in the euro area starting from October 9, 2025, and from all banks in the European Union starting July 9, 2027.
It can be used to transfer funds in up to 10 seconds 24/7, 365 days a year, including weekends and public holidays. Recipients can use the funds immediately.
* SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) list of countries.
Making an instant payment is as easy as making a classic payment. Regardless of the channel, you should select the "instant payment" option after entering the beneficiary details and completing the Verification of Payee.
As a payee, if the payer's bank participates in the instant payment system, you can receive payments 24/7/365 to eligible euro and non-euro accounts.
- Receiving an instant payment in euro to an eligible account in euro is free, except special conditions.
- Similarly, initiating an instant payment in euro from an eligible euro account is free, except special conditions.
- However, an instant payment in euro to or from an eligible non-euro account will incur a foreign exchange fee, in accordance with our tariffs.
Instant payments will be included in your available balance with a value date equal to the transaction date. Yet the accounting date for instant payments made on evenings, weekends, and holidays, which appears on your statements, corresponds to the next bank business day, which has no impact on your interest calculation.
Yes, here are the main rules:
- Receiving: Instant payments to foreign currency accounts are accepted up to €100,000. Payments above this amount will be rejected.
- Sending: Instant payments from foreign currency accounts are allowed up to €25,000. Payments above this amount will also be rejected.
- Exchange rates: As an exception to the usual pricing, instant payments use market reference rates published by the Global Market Database (GMDB) at 7:20 am, 11:20 am, 2:20 pm, and 5:20 pm CET on each banking business day. The 10:00 pm rate is currently not used.
Payments are processed immediately using the latest available rate, plus a service margin. - Weekends and public holidays: If a payment is received or initiated during a weekend or public holiday, the rate used will be the latest available GMDB rate from the previous banking day, plus a service margin.
We will inform you of any changes to these thresholds and the new exchange rate rules, already detailed in our Tariffs, through an update to this FAQ.
It is possible for ING LU customers to make instant payments from their payment accounts through several channels:
- InsideBusiness Payments
- MultiLine
- Host-2-Host like InsideBusiness Connect (IBC), that refers to a secure, automated method for transferring data directly between two systems
- Account aggregation services that allow you to group several bank accounts from different banks in one place.
The "urgent payment" option remains available. The transfer of funds will be made on the same day if requested before 4 pm on a bank working day, and within a maximum of one bank working day after 4 pm., for some additional fee (more information on ing.lu/tarifs).
It is also possible to transmit multiple instant payments as a file (SEPA Instant payment batch) through the above-mentioned channels. Technical details are communicated separately*.
*For InsideBusiness Payments and Host-2-host channels, more information is available on the website: FAQs on Instant Payments & VoP • ING. For MultiLine, more information will be available via the platform and the supporting documents communicated later. We also invite you to contact your Relationship Manager for more information.
We allow instant payments to current and Visa accounts to be received in euro and non-euro.
You can make an instant payment from current accounts in euro and non-euro.
In MultiLine, you can change the limit specific to instant transfers across all accounts from which you are authorized to make payments.
When joint approval is required to validate a payment, a simple approval from one of the co-approvers is sufficient to change the limit.
To take joint approval requirements into account to change the limit, you can contact your Relationship Manager.
In InsideBusiness Payments, the current mandate structure remains unchanged, including for instant transfers.
You can set a maximum limit in euro per instant payment or per day in My ING (app and website) and on request to your MultiLine team. This limit will apply to all instant payments initiated through these channels. It will not apply to instant transfers made between accounts under the client number, accessible via your “my accounts” in My ING or "own accounts" in MultiLine.
By default, in My ING, we set a limit that you can modify according to your needs: this limit is €10,000 for legal entities.
In InsideBusiness Payments, you can set a signature limit per transaction threshold that covers instant payments and other types of payments. This limit will not apply to instant payments initiated through other channels. You can’t set a daily limit for your instant payments.
If you are a Wholesale Banking customer, in MultiLine you can’t set a maximum limit per instant payment or per day.
For security reasons, a maximum limit of €50,000 per transaction is applied to instant payments made via My ING, Multiline, and services that group multiple bank accounts. Beyond this limit, which cannot be changed, your transfer will be rejected.
If you are a Wholesale Banking customer, the maximum limit per instant transfer does not apply to you.
With instant payments, you will also have the option to schedule your future transfers and standing orders for the date and time of your choice, via MultiLine, but not in InsideBusiness Payments and Host-2-Host channels.
We don’t adjust the sweeping process; it will continue to operate as today, only on bank business days (until 6:30 pm).
Instant Payments, incoming and outgoing, outside of bank opening times will have a value date that equals the transaction date, with a book date that equals the next bank opening date. To be sure that all interest is calculated on the master account of your cash pool structure you could request us to activate a back valuation.
The intraday limit is a day-to-day limit, which is replenished end of every bank business day (6:30 pm) via funding from the master account.
If an Instant Payment, which can be processed 24/7, consumes the intraday limit outside of the bank opening times, for example during the weekend, the limit of the next available bank business day is consumed.
Verification of payee
Starting from 9 October 2025, beneficiary verification (Verification of Payee ) will be mandatory. It checks whether the name or identifier of the beneficiary matches the IBAN entered for the transfer. The beneficiary’s bank compares this information with its own records.
This measure, introduced by the European Commission, aims to strengthen payment security within the European Union.
Beneficiary verification helps prevent certain types of fraud, such as identity theft or transfers to fake recipients, and reduces errors caused by incorrect data entry.
There are two exceptions:
- Professional or institutional clients can choose not to use beneficiary verification for bulk payments sent by file (package). However, the check is still required for individuals and for companies if the file contains only one payment.
- Paper-based or non-electronic transfers (such as those sent by post, fax, email, or secure messaging) may be exempt if the client is not reachable at the time of their receipt. This includes cases like payments made using a Universal Payment Title.
When you enter a payment, and before it is executed, the data you enter (name and IBAN at least) will be compared with those recorded by the beneficiary's bank.
You will then receive one of the following results:
- If the data matches, you will receive a confirmation message ("Match"), you can validate your payment as entered.
- If the data matches partially ("Close Match"), you will receive an alert message with the proposal of the beneficiary's name as registered with the beneficiary's bank. You will be asked to check the beneficiary's name before validating your transfer.
- If the data does not match ("No match"), you will receive an alert. We therefore invite you to check the details you have entered before confirming your transfer. If you decide to proceed without making any changes, the transfer may be sent to an incorrect recipient.
- If the Verification of Payee could not be carried out ("Verification not impossible"), you will receive an alert message (technical error, beneficiary bank not reachable etc.).
This notification is a warning. It is a decision-making tool that verifies the concordance of the data entered with that held by the beneficiary bank. It is up to you to decide whether to proceed with the transfer with or without modifications.
- For individuals, the verification is carried out based on the first and last name of the account holder or one of the co-holders registered with the beneficiary's bank. In the case of a close match, only the name of the account holder whose name was entered is displayed.
- For legal entities, the verification concerns the legal names or LEI registered by the beneficiary's bank.
After receiving the result of the beneficiary check (no match or close match) and being informed of the risks, you may decide to validate the transfer without making changes.
However, if the payment goes to an incorrect beneficiary (due to fraud or a mistake when entering details), you will be held responsible and no refund will be possible.
We therefore recommend:
- Not validating the payment immediately;
- Verifying the beneficiary's data;
- Contacting your beneficiary directly via a verified channel (known phone number, official website, certified email) to confirm their bank details (name, legal name, LEI, IBAN).
Payment service providers (PSPs) are only held responsible if they did not share the result of the beneficiary check or did not inform the payer about the risks in case of incorrect information.
You play a essential role in the smooth running of the control:
- Make sure that the beneficiary's name you enter matches the legal name (legal entity) or the first and last name (natural person) associated with the beneficiary's bank account.
The use of aliases, trade names, abbreviations or acronyms may result in a no match or a close match and trigger an alert message.
Differences such as the use of nicknames or abbreviations can trigger an alert message. Differences in capitalization and punctuation will not have an impact.
Examples:
- “Maman” vs “Sophie Martin”:
--> "No match": modify the details of your payment by replacing the beneficiary "Mom" with your mother's first name + official name. If the beneficiary is registered, also remember to change the registered name to the first name + official name. If you don't, you'll continue to receive an alert message every time you make a payment.
- “S. Martin” vs “Sophie Martin”:
--> "Close match": modify the details of your payment by replacing the abbreviated first name with the full first name + official name of your beneficiary that is offered to you. If the beneficiary is registered, also remember to change the registered name to the first name + official name offered. If you don't, you'll continue to receive an alert message every time you make a payment.
- Remember to update the names in your list of registered beneficiaries to avoid an error message: a legal name for a company, a first and last name for an individual.
- Use the legal name, which can appear on the bank account details (RIB) of the beneficiary account you want to credit, the name indicated next to the IBAN on the invoice or payment request.
Examples:
- "Magasin Dupont" (trade name) vs "Holding Solutions SARL" (legal name):
=> "no match": change the details of your payment by replacing the beneficiary "Magasin Dupont" with "Holding Solutions SARL". If the beneficiary is registered, consider also changing the name to the legal name. If you don't, you'll continue to receive an alert message every time you make a payment.
- "Dupont SARL" vs "Dupont Solutions SARL"
=> "close match": modify the details of your payment by replacing the beneficiary "Magasin Dupont" with "Holding Solutions SARL" which is offered to you. If the beneficiary is registered, consider also changing the name to the legal name. If you don't, you'll continue to receive an alert message every time you make a payment.
- When transferring a payment to an account in the name of two holders, indicate the full name (first and last name) of only one of them.
Yes, instant payments with a future date are subject to the Verification of Payee when entering the payment.
Yes, the Verification of Payee also applies to the creation of new standing orders and the amendment of existing standing orders.
However, it does not apply to existing standing orders unless they are amended.
The Verification of Payee must be carried out before any customer payment in euro, regardless of the channel used, to accounts opened with banks in the Eurozone from the 9th of October 2025 and between all banks in the EU from 9th of July 2027.
In My ING, payments between the accounts registered in "My Accounts" will not be subject to this control.
In Multiline, payments between accounts of the same company, recorded in "own accounts" will not be subject to this control.
Details regarding payee verification for transfers made via InsideBusiness Payments and Host-2-Host channels are available on the page: FAQs on Instant Payments & VoP • ING.
If the payment is initiated via a Payment Service Provider in Eurozone it is responsible for verification of payee check.
The verification does not apply to payments in currencies other than euro, card payments, direct debits.
You play a key role in the smooth running of the control.
- Provide your customers with the exact name that corresponds to your bank account (legal name) by sharing your Bank Identity Statement (RIB).
- If necessary, update your invoices and documents with the legal name associated with the account next to your IBAN.
This will make it possible to avoid error messages to the payer during payments as much as possible. As a company, this will ensure that invoices can be paid correctly and that your customers have confidence.
You accept the risk that the transfer will be credited to an incorrect beneficiary. If so, you are responsible.
By default, Verification of Payee applies. However, a customer may opt out from the service for multiple payments submitted via a file.
For channels such as MultiLine, please contact your Relationship Manager to opt out from this service. You will have the option to request an "opt-in" at any time.
For InsideBusiness Payments and Host-2-Host, please refer to the documentation available on the following page: FAQs on Instant Payments & VoP • ING.
If you don't provide the exact name associated with the account that your customers need to credit, you run the risk that payments won't reach you, as the customer may abandon the payment instruction if there is a mismatch or transfer the money to an incorrect beneficiary.
If you're initiating payments, make sure that the payee name you enter matches the name associated with the payee's bank account. Use the name on the bank account statement (RIB).
If you don't, use the name next to the IBAN on the invoice or payment request sent to you.
If in doubt, ask the beneficiary for the correct name to enter.
To avoid alert messages, remember to update your list of registered beneficiaries.
Yes, multiple payments sent by file are concerned by the verification of payee unless you have chosen to opt out.
The time it takes to verify the file will depend on its size.
