This enhancement enables a more seamless and user friendly experience for customers, while maintaining the same high level of security and compliance across our services.

Please note that the beneficiary’s MSISDN must be enrolled in AliasPay, the service provided by Transfond through participating banks mobile applications. Only phone numbers registered within AliasPay can be used for payment initiation.

• The product domestic-budget-transfers-bgn will be supported indefinitely for initiating VAT and other payments to the local and government institution in the domestic currency – EUR
• Foreign currency payments in the same bank (intrabank) and to other banks still have to be initiated using the cross-border-credit-transfers product
• Transaction history and Payment details for payments processed before the euro adoption will be available in BGN
• The described changes will also be applied to bulk payments and periodic payments (standing orders)
• Domestic instant payments in EUR will be supported via the sepa-credit-transfers product (also bulk payments) by using the service level code INST
