Igoria Trade SA becomes a BLIK settlement agent
Igoria Trade SA, one of the leading issuers of multi-currency payment cards, has joined the ranks of BLIK settlement agents, thus expanding its service offerings. Through this collaboration, IgoriaCard customers will now be able to accept payments via BLIK – one of the most popular mobile payment methods in Poland. This is another step in BLIK’s dynamic growth, as it continues to expand its network of partners both in Poland and abroad.
The potential of BLIK and plans for the future
In the first half of 2024, BLIK had nearly 17 million active users, recording an impressive increase in the number of transactions across all channels. In the first six months of 2024 alone, the system registered over 1.1 billion operations, with users making an average of 6.1 million payments per day. Additionally, BLIK has dominated the e-commerce market, where every second transaction is conducted through its system, and its share of the Polish mobile payment market is estimated at 70%.
BLIK is continuously expanding its offering, with plans to introduce deferred payments (“BLIK Pay Later”) and extend its operations to foreign markets, such as Slovakia, Romania, and other Eurozone countries. Another key development is the growth of BLIK’s proximity payments, which are already available in 154 countries, including Germany, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain. BLIK is also planning to launch contactless functionality for Apple smartphone users, further expanding the availability of its services.
Thanks to collaborations with settlement agents like Igoria Trade SA, BLIK is becoming an even more universal payment solution, offering fast, secure, and convenient transactions for customers worldwide.
