Bpost has decided to discontinue issuing its prepaid bpaid cards. Holders of these cards have until the end of February 2026 to use their remaining balance.
People who still have a bpaid card have several options for using the remaining balance on their card. This can be done by making purchases, withdrawing money, or transferring the balance to a Nickel account. This account is now also available at post offices throughout the country. Belgium.
Bpost offers customers who currently have a bpaid card the option to switch to a Nickel account free of charge. This service normally costs €25 euro per year, but this fee is waived for the first year for current bpaid cardholders. In addition, customers who choose this option will receive a €5 welcome gift on their new account.
After February 28, 2026, all bpaid cards will be automatically closed. Any remaining unused funds on the card at that time will be transferred to the Deposit and Consignment Office, part of the Government's Finance Department.
