How does Open Banking work?
- The user scans the QR code on the bill or invoice
- The user chooses the bank for the account they wish to pay with
- The user is asked to authenticate the payment. On a mobile device, this will normally be biometric information such as Face ID or fingerprint, or the banking app PIN
- Once the user is authenticated, all the relevant information (transaction value, account number, etc.) is filled out automatically
- The user taps once more to process payment
- The invoice is paid
