excluding SEPA, it’s impossible to buy most things using them in my EU country.
SEPA also doesn’t have disposable credentials using randomized credit cards. i don’t want the stores I buy from to have my bank account info and potentially be charged by them randomly.
SEPA payments are push. Not pull. A vendor could request recurring payments, but you have to specifically authorize them. They are very rarely used, except maybe for monthly utilitiy payments.
thanks for clarifying. there’s still the risk of your IBAN getting leaked in a hack, no?
It’s not supposed to be a secret. Most companies here publish it on their invoices, so you can pay them. Some nonprofits even display it on their websites to accept donations.
Even the some governments publish the treasury account numbers for anyone to see.
