The provision of payment services requires a licence pursuant to the Financial Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht). An example of payment services is receiving amounts on behalf of a third party and then transferring them to that third party.

Parties that may be involved in payment services - in addition to regular payment service providers - include online platforms, payment apps, parties that offer a household booklet and parties such as credit providers that want to import data (such as bank statements)
