No matter what your purpose is, to pay off or request debts from friends, to pay in stores or to support that cause that is so important to you. Bizum is part of your everyday life. We know that and we love it, bizumer. But sometimes we find ourselves in situations that are hard to believe, and that is when one of your contacts tells you… (dramatic music on) “I DON’T HAVE BIZUM”. What now? Could there be more people in this situation? Don’t worry. We bring you the answer to the question of how to know if a contact has Bizum. It’s very simple and you can find out in two ways. And we also explain what happens if you make a Bizum to someone who does not have it. Keep reading and solve all your doubts.
If your bank has linked your address book with Bizum, it is very easy to find out by following these three steps:
As you can see, it is very simple and visual.
Find out if a contact uses Bizum directly from your address book as follows: 1. Access your banking application. 2. Select the option to send a Bizum. 3. When filling in the data, choose “address book” instead of entering the number directly. 4. When you go to complete the Bizum, you will see a message indicating that the person does not have Bizum. And that’s all? No! From Bizum we offer you the option to complete the operation so that it arrives as a “request” to join the Bizumer community and receive your money in an easy, fast and simple way.
Yes, you can. Although the person to whom you want to send a Bizum appears as “no bizumer”, you can send it. Even if the Bizum contact does not appear (or appears crossed out).
In this case what happens is that, as we said, the recipient receives a notification, usually by sms, explaining that a person has sent him a bizum and that to receive it he must register in your application within 48 hours. Otherwise the bizum will return to its sender and your debt will have to be settled by another way (slower for sure 😉).
As always when it comes to a transaction with Bizum, first of all, take it easy. If you make a Bizum to a person who does not have Bizum, the transaction does not become effective until he/she signs up. And if they do not register, the money does not leave your account. However, in case you have any doubts about what to do if you send a bizum to a person who does not have Bizum, in this other article you can see what happens at all times with your money, depending on your situation.
