What will Christmas 2020 be like? The uncertainty generated by the COVID-19 pandemic makes it one of the most commonly shared questions today. However, even if spending on parties, dinners, travel or social activities is predicted to be reduced, the purchase of gifts will be the protagonist even from a distance. In relation to this, we have already talked about the advantages of Bizum to settle accounts between friends and family with ease, but today we wanted to highlight the possibility of making multiple transfers, i.e. sending or requesting money to several contacts at the same time.
In addition to being able to buy gifts online with Bizum, you can also request the money that corresponds to each person with a single operation. Similarly, it is possible to send money to a group of bizumers at the same time. We answer some key questions regarding multiple transfers: – What do I have to do to send or request multiple money transfers? You have to follow the usual steps to send or receive money between individuals and, when entering the recipient’s phone number, click on the + symbol to continue adding more mobiles or contacts from the address book.
– How many people can be claimed or paid at a time? For security reasons, the limit is set at 30 people at a time. That said, we recommend that you check the numbers carefully before completing the multiple transfer so as not to get confused. – How long does it take for the money to arrive? A few seconds! With Bizum, the payment is practically immediate. However, the recipient will receive a notification to confirm that the transaction has been successful. – Can I request different amounts from several people at the same time? No, in that case, you will have to make different transactions. With multiple transfers, the idea is to save time when the concept and payment amount are identical for everyone. – How do the charges appear? Even if the multiple transfer is made in one go, the movements will appear in the account in a single transaction: there will be as many as there are recipients. – What if one of the contacts I have added in a multiple transfer does not have Bizum? Then they will receive an invitation to start using Bizum and the payment or request will be put on hold for a short time, but then it will be cancelled. The pending money transfer will expire after two days and, in the case of a payment request, the margin will be seven days.

Although this year’s Christmas will be atypical, there are traditions that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can’t resist: the lottery, gifts and even copious meals (even if they take place in small groups) will resist. Whether you are going to take advantage of this Black Friday to get your gifts or you prefer to wait until closer to the dates, Bizum can help you to balance the accounts with your friends and family in an easy and convenient way for everyone. We encourage you to try multiple transfers this Christmas and then tell us about the experience on our social networks: Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn.
