Where do I find tickets I’ve purchased?
You will always find your active tickets on the KBC Mobile login screen, which means you don’t need to log in to view them.
You will find a list of your active and future tickets in ‘Additional services’ at the top of the screen
- Open KBC Mobile
- Tap ‘Additional services’
- Log in
Once you have logged in, you can also see your active tickets under ‘Your favourites’ when you tap ‘Offer’.
Can you buy multiple tickets all at once?
No, but you can buy several tickets in a row or use multiple journeys on your m-card10 ticket one after the other.
Note that you will be unable to buy single tickets if you have an m-card10 ticket. Single tickets or m-card10 ticket journeys that you buy are activated right away, so you can’t buy them for future use.
How long is my m-ticket or m-card10 valid?
An m-card10 is a digital public transport saver card that entitles you to 10 journeys on Belgian public transport and is valid for one year. Any journey you make using your m-card 10 and m-ticket will be valid for one hour after the time of validation. Within this hour, you can travel and transfer anywhere you like.
Note: your m-ticket and m-card10 are linked to your phone and mobile number, so be sure not to replace your phone or SIM card if you have an active ticket or card.
If you change phones or mobile numbers, you will lose the remaining journeys on your m-card10.
What if I’m not a KBC customer – can I still use KBC Mobile to buy De Lijn public transport tickets?
Yes, you can.
- Download KBC Mobile from your app store
- Get registered
- Go to ‘Additional services’ and tap the De Lijn icon
- Check your details
- Buy a ticket.
You need a Bancontact app on your phone to be able to pay for your ticket.
What are the different types of ticket that SNCB has been offering since 15 October 2025?
SNCB’s range of tickets was updated on 15 October 2025 and the following tickets are now offered:
- Off-peak Ticket: valid during off-peak hours on weekdays only
- Anytime Ticket: valid during peak hours on weekdays only
- Weekend Ticket (valid for travel on Saturdays, Sundays, public holidays or ‘bridge days’ specified by SNCB)
- Train+ saver card (discounts during off-peak hours and weekends)
- From the end of May 2026:
- Small Group Ticket (4 to 14 people travelling on one ticket – valid during off-peak hours or weekends only)
- Supplements for pets, bicycles, travel class upgrades, upgrading off-peak tickets (Off-peak Ticket) to peak hour tickets (Anytime Ticket) and bus tickets to Charleroi Airport (TEC).
- ‘Entitlement to a preferential reimbursement discount’ status (i.e. ticket for people on a low income or with a medical condition – status also known by the acronym ‘BIM’)
Important note:
Local Multi (multiple journey ticket for routes over very short distances) and Standard Multi (multiple journey ticket for routes over long distances) have ceased to be included in SNCB's range of tickets since 15 October 2025. However, you can keep using the ticket until its expiry date.
What is the Train+ saver card?
The Train+ saver card gets you an additional discount on your train ticket:
- 40% off the standard fare during off-peak hours.
- an additional 40% off the weekend fare.
- You never pay more than 14 euros per journey (in 2nd class) regardless of when you travel.
- The saver card costs 6 euros a month or 48 euros a year for adults aged between 26 and 64. If you’re under 26, a senior citizen or entitled to a ‘preferential reimbursement discount’, you pay 4 euros a month or 32 euros a year.
- You can use the Train+ saver card in KBC Mobile and also at SNCB ticket offices.
What are the fares with a saver card?
- Anytime Ticket with Train+: max. price 14 euros (adults), 5.50 euros (under 26s, senior citizens, people entitled to a ‘preferential reimbursement discount’)
- Weekend Ticket with Train+: max. price 8.80 euros (adults), 5.50 euros (under 26s, senior citizens, people entitled to a ‘preferential reimbursement discount’)
- Off-peak Ticket with Train+: max. price 12.50 euros (adults), 5.50 euros (under 26s, senior citizens, people entitled to a ‘preferential reimbursement discount’)
How is the price of my ticket calculated?
When you buy a ticket, we automatically take into account your age, when you travel, where you’re going and your entitlement to a discount.
If you have a Train+ saver card that entitles you to additional discounts, we automatically factor that into the price of your ticket.
Is the passenger’s age factored into the price calculation?
Yes, age helps determine the price of a ticket (see the full overview on the SNCB website).
What if I’m not a KBC customer – can I still use KBC Mobile to buy SNCB train tickets?
Yes, both customers and non-customers can buy a ticket using KBC Mobile.
- Download KBC Mobile from your app store
- Get registered
- Tap the SNCB icon
- Check your details
- Buy a ticket
You need a Bancontact app on your phone to pay for your ticket.
My ticket purchase was interrupted. Will I still get charged for it?
You confirm your purchase only after signing for it in KBC Mobile. If a technical error occurs, we refund the full amount to your account.
If you lose your Internet connection after confirming your purchase, you’ll get your ticket as soon as you’re connected again.
What if my device’s battery is dead?
Try to avoid this situation, as you must be able to show a valid ticket at all times. But if it does happen, it’s best to buy a new ticket from a machine or at the ticket office to be able to present it to the guard, otherwise they will issue a statement of irregularity (C170) and require you to buy a ticket at the on-board fare (subject to a supplement of 7 euros on top of the standard fare). You will then have 14 calendar days (including the date of inspection) to go to an SNCB ticket office to request a refund, provided that you can present the valid ticket which you had purchased through the app in advance as well as the ticket you bought at the on-board fare or the statement of irregularity (C170) issued to you by the guard.
See the SNCB website for more details.
Tip: some trains have special power point sockets that let you charge your phone or tablet. You can also use a laptop to charge your device. It’s important to note that larger and heavier chargers (such as those for Apple devices) cannot be used if the power point socket is above the seats.
What if I’m not a KBC customer – can I still use KBC Mobile to buy SNCB train tickets?
Yes, you can.
- Download KBC Mobile from your app store
- Get registered
- Go to ‘Additional services’ and tap the SNCB icon
- Check your details
- Buy a ticket.
You need a Bancontact app on your phone to be able to pay for your ticket.
What should I do if I want to stop using the service?
Call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 to deactivate your account.
If you want to buy train tickets with KBC Mobile again later, you’ll need to re-share your details with Olympus.
What can you do using the ‘STIB’ feature in KBC Mobile?
This additional service lets you buy STIB 10-journey (BRUPASS 10) tickets, which are put onto your MoBIB card once you buy them.
All you need to do to get started is link your MoBIB card to KBC Mobile (just the once). Open KBC Mobile, then tap ‘Additional services’ and ‘STIB’ to do this.
What is a MoBIB card and why do I need one?
A MoBIB card lets you put season and other tickets from the four public transport operators in Belgium (STIB, SNCB, TEC and De Lijn) onto a single card. Learn more about MoBIB.
You need a MoBIB card that’s enabled for the STIB network to be able to top up a STIB 10-journey ticket.
Do MoBIB cards expire and what should I do when mine does?
MoBIB cards expire after five years, when you’ll need to get a new one from the card issuer. The card number stays the same, so you don’t have to make any changes in KBC Mobile.
If you do get a different card number (like when your card is lost or stolen), remove the old card and add the new one using ‘Manage MoBIB cards’ in your settings. Tap the three dots at the top right of your screen to open the settings.
Where can I use a BRUPASS 10 ticket?
10-journey BRUPASS 10 tickets can be used in the MTB zone, consisting of:
- STIB’s entire network (except the Bourget – Brussels Airport section) of connecting services
- TEC and De Lijn’s urban services in the Brussels-Capital Region
- SNCB’s train services in the Brussels-Capital Region
My ticket purchase was interrupted. Will I still get charged for it?
You confirm your purchase by signing to authorise payment for it in KBC Mobile or with another bank’s payment app. If a technical error occurs, we refund the full amount to your account. For payments authorised with another bank’s payment app, this can take up to several days. In these cases, you haven’t bought a ticket and you’ll have to go through the steps to buy one again.
If you lose your Internet connection after confirming your purchase, you’ll get your ticket as soon as you’re connected again. If you don’t, call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30.
What if I don’t have an Internet connection?
You need an Internet connection to buy a 10-journey BRUPASS 10 ticket using KBC Mobile. BRUPASS tickets bought using our app are put onto your MoBIB card. That means your MoBIB card is all you need to use a journey, without requiring an Internet connection.
How do I buy a ticket to rent a shared bike using KBC Mobile?
- Tap ‘Additional services’ in our app’s login screen and then ‘Shared bikes’
- Verify your details if you’re using the service for the first time and accept our partner Olympus’ terms of use
- Then select a provider on the map or from the list at the bottom of the screen.
- Choose a city bike or e-bike if you’re using Blue-bike
- Tap a pick-up point on the map to check the number of available bikes there
- See what a ticket will cost you.
- Buy your ticket and pay through KBC Mobile
Your ticket is saved in our app and shown in the login screen.
How long is a ticket valid for?
Once activated, tickets are valid for 24 hours.
Blue-bike
You don’t need to activate a ticket right after buying it. You have 10 days after purchasing a ticket to activate it. With Blue-bike, you rent the same bike for 24 hours.
Velo Antwerpen
You don’t need to activate a ticket right after buying it. You have 10 days after purchasing a ticket to activate it.
Velo Antwerpen lets you use several bikes within 24 hours (up to 30 minutes per bike). If you use a bike for over 30 minutes, you pay surcharges. This information is also shown on your ticket.
Mobit
Day passes are activated once you buy them and can then be used for 24 hours. They’re also only shown in the app for 24 hours and not for 10 days like the other services.
You can change bikes as much as you like while using a valid day pass. You have to lock an active bike first and release it in the app before opening a new one.
How do I activate a ticket?
Mobit day passes are activated once you buy them.
Blue-bike and Velo Antwerpen tickets require you to enter the code on your ticket at your chosen bike rental point. Each of our bike-share partners have different ways of doing things. Learn more on their websites:
How do you activate a ticket for a smart shared bike from Blue-bike?
Blue-bike recently launched ‘smart’ shared bikes that you simply unlock with your smartphone, meaning you don’t need to use a key and key distributor. You can recognise these bikes from the QR code on their handlebar panel.
How does it work?
- Buy your ticket through KBC Mobile
- Install the Blue-bike app
- Enter the code on your ticket where you see ‘Use a voucher’
- Tap the saddle to activate the lock
- Follow the instructions in the app
You’ll also be able to unlock smart shared bikes soon with KBC Mobile, so be sure to check back here regularly.
I’ve already used my ticket. Why is it still shown in the app?
We always display tickets for 10 days, as you don’t need to use them right away. Tickets are activated by the bike-share service, not by us at KBC. That’s why you may still see a used ticket in our app. Codes can only be activated once. Tickets disappear from our app after 10 days, without you having to remove them yourself.
Can I buy multiple tickets at the same time?
That depends on the service. You can only buy one Mobit day pass at a time.
Blue-bike and Velo Antwerpen let you buy more than one ticket, but you have to do so separately for each one. So, you can’t buy a number of tickets all in one go.
Tickets can also be used by others (like family members), provided they fulfil the relevant shared bike provider’s age conditions for using their service. The person who bought the ticket is liable for any surcharges, which are debited from the account used to buy the ticket. See the shared bike providers’ websites for their specific terms and conditions of service:
Are tickets bought through KBC more expensive or cheaper than tickets bought directly from the bike-share services?
The KBC Mobile app offers tickets at fixed prices, so you pay the same in every city. We only offer 24-hour tickets and don’t charge based on usage.
Note that providers often have their own season tickets or charge fixed (annual) fees. These charges don’t apply in KBC.
How do I dispute surcharges or transactions?
Call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 for more assistance with this. Make sure you have all the relevant details at hand, such as the date of the transaction, the transaction code and your account number.
How are surcharges charged?
Surcharges are automatically debited from the account used to buy the original ticket. If there isn’t enough money on your account, the surcharges will still be charged. This may cause you to go overdrawn on your account, in which case you should clear the overdraft as soon as possible to avoid additional charges.
If you think you’ve been wrongly surcharged, call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 (see ‘How do I dispute surcharges or transactions?’).
What if I don’t want to use this service anymore?
Go to your settings and select ‘Stop using shared bikes’.
If you want to start using the service again afterwards, you’ll need to re-share your details with Olympus.
Blue-bike and Velo Antwerpen tickets you previously bought, but haven’t used yet, stay visible in the app and can also be activated.
My ticket purchase was interrupted. Will I still get charged for it?
You confirm your purchase by signing to authorise payment for it in KBC Mobile. If a technical error occurs, we refund the full amount to your account.
If you lose your Internet connection after confirming your purchase, you’ll get your ticket as soon as you’re connected again. If you don’t, call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30.
What if I don’t have an Internet connection?
You need an Internet connection to buy a ticket. Try connecting to your mobile data network or a Wi-Fi network.
Mobit also requires you to be connected to the Internet to open or release their bikes.
You don’t need to be online to view Blue-bike and Velo Antwerpen tickets you’ve bought. Just tap the notification in our app’s login screen to activate the ticket at a bike rental point, even if you’re offline.
What is my location used for and how do I stop sharing it?
We use your location to show you the nearest bike rental points so you don’t have to search for them yourself.
If you’d rather not share your location, you can switch this feature off at any time in your phone’s or tablet’s settings
Sharing your location is not necessary to use the service.
How do I use this service?
- Open KBC Mobile, tap ‘Additional services’ and log in
- Scroll to ‘Mobility’ and select ‘Q-Park’
- Read the information and choose the account you want to use to pay for parking
- Accept the Olympus and Q-park privacy statement and terms of use
- Register the number plates you intend to use for Q-Park
Check that you’ve given us the right number plate and not someone else’s by mistake (letting them potentially park at your expense).
Which accounts can I use to pay for my parking session?
You can only link your number plate to current accounts of which you are the main holder, joint holder or co-holder with power of attorney. Each number plate can only be linked to one account, but an account can have several number plates linked to it.
When registering, I get an error message saying: ‘No access. Sorry, you can’t use Park at Q-Park.’ Why's that?
Unfortunately, not all customers can use this additional service. We’re unable to elaborate any further, apart from to say that the service is simply not available to you at the moment. If you’re not satisfied with this situation, please contact our Complaints Management department.
If I have a Q-Park season ticket for a specific car park, can I use this service to park at another Q-Park car park?
Yes, you can. If you have a Q-Park season ticket for a particular car park, your payments for it will continue to be made through Q-Park, even if you’ve signed up to use the ‘Park at Q-Park’ service at KBC. If you park at a car park for which you don’t have a season ticket, you pay through KBC.
What do I do if the barrier at the entrance to a Q-Park car park doesn’t open?
It may take up to 10 seconds for the barrier to open. If nothing happens, press the black button at the barrier and say that you’re using the KBC ‘Park at Q-Park’ service to get let in by a Q-Park staff member. If you don’t get an answer in time and traffic starts to build up behind you, take a ticket at the barrier and pay for your parking at the machine.
While parking at a Q-Park car park, I’ve decided to deactivate KBC Mobile’s ‘Park at Q-Park’ service. How do I pay for my parking?
Your parking session starts once your number plate is recognised. If you decide to stop using this service while parked at a Q-Park car park, you’ll still be able to exit the car park and pay automatically on the way out. Just take a new ticket the next time you use the car park.
While parking at a Q-Park car park, I’ve decided to remove the number plate I added. How do I pay for my parking?
Your parking session starts once your number plate is recognised. If you decide to remove your number plate while parked at a Q-Park car park, you’ll still be able to exit the car park and pay automatically on the way out. Just take a new ticket the next time you use the car park.
What should I do if I want to dispute the cost of a parking session?
Please contact our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30.
Where do I find the code to enter the car park by the pedestrian entrance?
If you would like to use the pedestrian entrance, you may need to scan a QR code. You will find this code in KBC Mobile:
- Go to ‘Additional Services’, scroll to ‘Mobility’ and select ‘Q-Park’
- Tap the ‘Parking sessions’ tab and then tap your current parking session.
What can the ‘4411’ service do for me?
‘4411’ takes the hassle out of parking. You don’t need any change, you don’t have to send any texts and you only pay after you’re done parking, so you don’t pay for any time you weren’t parked.
You can also activate notifications so that you receive a warning whenever your parking session is almost over or when you’re back near your vehicle. This ensures you never forget to end your session.
How do I add my 4411 account to KBC Mobile?
- Open KBC Mobile, tap ‘Additional services’ and log in
- Select ‘4411’
- Choose the account you want to use to pay for parking
- Accept the Olympus privacy statement and terms of use
- Enter your mobile phone number and the password you used to register with 4411, or create a new account
- Give permission to link KBC Mobile to your 4411 account
- Start your parking session
What if I don’t have a 4411 account yet?
- Open KBC Mobile, tap ‘Additional services’ and log in
- Select ‘4411’
- Choose the account you want to use to pay for parking
- Accept the Olympus privacy statement and terms of use
- Follow the on-screen instructions to create a new account
- Give permission to link KBC Mobile to your 4411 account
- Start your parking session
What do I do if I get a parking fine even after I’ve started a parking session?
Call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30.
You can see all your parking sessions from the past three months under the ‘All sessions’ tab, so you’re always able to show that you had paid for your parking session when the fine was issued.
Do I have to activate location services?
That’s not necessary, as we can show you how to find the parking area or parking meter closest to you in most towns. Be sure to check before starting your session.
If you’d like to get a notification when you’re back near your vehicle after a parking session has ended, you’ll need to share your location with KBC Mobile. We use your location data solely for these notifications.
What is the maximum amount that I see prior to the start of a parking session?
Each location has a maximum parking duration (like four hours). The maximum amount that is displayed before the start of the parking session is the amount you’ll be charged if you park for the maximum duration in that particular location (not including the 0.35 euros transaction fee). The maximum amount isn’t available for certain parking facilities, so you won’t see one for them.
Can I start a parking session if it is payable only on the next day?
If you arrive late in the evening and expect to leave the next day only after the session becomes payable, you can start your parking session the evening before. The session will, however, only become visible in KBC Mobile once it has started. Of course, you won’t be paying for the entire duration that you’ve parked, only for the period that is payable.
Where can I see the Smiles I’ve saved in KBC Mobile?
You first need to register using KBC Mobile. Once you’ve done so, tap ‘Refuel at Q8’ to see a welcome screen showing you how many Smiles you’ve saved. You’re only shown this screen at filling stations. Your current Smiles balance is also given in the transaction reference for a fill-up.
When registering, why does it say that my e-mail address is already in use?
Check whether your partner or another family member may have registered using your e-mail address. E-mail addresses can only be used once to register for the Q8 Smiles Loyalty Programme. If you think that your e-mail address has been used unlawfully to create an account, please send an e-mail to that effect to privacy@Q8smiles.be.
Got more questions about Smiles?
Check out q8smiles.be to find out more. View the Q8 smiles data protection statement and Q8 smiles terms of use through KBC.
What type of car can I book?
At cambio, you can choose from more than 20 different types of vehicle that are classified by size (small, medium and large). Go for a small city car to run an errand, pick a van to help your friends move home or go for a saloon to turn a few heads. Vehicle size ‘XL’ is not available in KBC Mobile.
Why do I need to provide my driving licence details?
You must have a valid full driving licence (at least type B) to rent a cambio car. Cambio does not accept provisional driving licences or drivers whose driving licence has been revoked. Cambio asks for a photo of your driver’s licence to verify it and only uses your driving licence details to activate the service.
Why do I have to watch a video?
Cambio’s video explains in a simple way how everything works. That includes guiding you from booking through to opening a car, telling you the rules for using the service and informing you about cambio stations. Cambio will only activate your account once you’ve watched their video.
Can I change a booking?
You can change your booking before your trip starts.
- Go to ‘Additional services’ and tap ‘Cambio’
- Tap the booking you want to change
Once you’ve made your changes, cambio will check your car’s availability again.
Remember to confirm your changes. If you don’t, your original booking will be kept.
Once you start driving, you can only change the time you plan to end your trip.
How much does a trip cost?
The price of a trip depends on its duration, the type of car and the number of kilometres driven. See what cambio costs for private individuals and see what cambio costs for businesses.
Tap ‘Calculate price’ to get a price estimate for your booking before confirming it.
How do I dispute transactions or surcharges?
You can call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 or e-mail them at extraservicessupport@kbc.be.
What does it mean when I’ve reached my monthly limit?
A maximum monthly limit applies to the use of cambio cars booked through KBC Mobile. If you have too many unpaid trips or scheduled too many future trips, you won't be able to book a car for a time. As soon as these trips have been debited from your account (around the 15th of the month), you can start booking a cambio car again.
KBC and Olympus are working on a solution to build more flexibility into this process.
Can I book a car for someone else?
No. You book cars in your own name and cambio charges you for using them. Your spouse or legally cohabiting partner may drive the car, provided that you’re in the car with them and they meet the requirements to drive a cambio car (at least 25 years of age with a valid, full driver’s licence). If cambio detects any violations in this regard, your account will be blocked and you’ll be fined 250 euros.
If I’m already a cambio customer, can I link the account I already have with them?
No, you can't. They use a different system to the one used by KBC Mobile. They also charge a subscription fee and deposit, which is not the case using KBC Mobile.
If you’d like to book a car using KBC Mobile, simply register to use KBC Mobile. Trips booked using KBC Mobile are paid for through KBC and not using your existing account with cambio.
How do I open the car and start driving?
If you have a booking, you can open the car using KBC Mobile. Just tap your booking, then ‘Open this car’ to unlock it.
If the car doesn’t have a card reader on the windscreen, follow these steps:
- Check the car for damage and cleanliness (if something isn’t as it should be, contact cambio’s helpdesk).
- Take the key from the glove compartment to start the car and start driving.
- If you need to refuel, you can ask cambio’s helpdesk for the fuel card code.
If the car has a card reader on the windscreen, follow these steps:
- Enter your PIN on the handheld module in the car.
- Confirm whether or not there’s any damage.
- Take the key from the onboard computer and start driving.
- If you need to refuel, you can use the handheld module to retrieve the fuel card code.
If you linked your MoBIB card to your account when you signed up, you can also use your MoBIB card to open cars equipped with a card reader.
How do I lock the car?
If you want to park somewhere during your trip, use the key. If you want to end your trip and return the car to its cambio station, put the key back where you found it (in the glove compartment or onboard computer).
You then use KBC Mobile to lock the car. Just open your booking and tap ‘End booking’ to lock the car and end your booking.
If you linked your MoBIB card to your account when you signed up, you can also use your MoBIB card to lock cars equipped with a card reader.
Am I insured?
Compulsory third-party liability insurance, legal assistance insurance and driver personal accident insurance are included in the price. That means you yourself are insured if you have an accident in your cambio car,
but loss or damage to the car is not. If you damage the car, cambio may charge you a deductible of up to 1 000 euros.
KBC offers add-on insurance to reduce this to 200 euros, which you can take out when you book a cambio car. It costs 5 euros a day (per 24-hour period started).
What should I do if I have an accident in my car or it’s damaged?
Do what’s legally required first: contact the emergency services if necessary and complete a European accident statement.
Is the car equipped with a cambio onboard computer?
You should let cambio know what has happened using the onboard computer. If you can’t do so because the car is no longer driveable, contact cambio’s helpdesk or the emergency services (see your vehicle’s documents for contact details).
Is the car not equipped with an onboard computer?
Call cambio's helpdesk.
Cambio will handle any claims you make and contact you if necessary.
What should I do if I want to stop using the service?
You can call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 or e-mail them at extraservicessupport@kbc.be.
Remember that you’ll have to pay a registration fee if you want to use the service again.
What can you do using this additional service in KBC Mobile?
This service lets you buy Brussels Airport Lounge Passes and Fast Lane Passes.
- The Lounge Pass gives you one-time access to the Diamond Lounges at Brussels Airport for up to one year after purchase. Relax in Diamond Lounge comfort with complementary food and drinks, magazines, showers and more while you wait for your flight.
- Use the Fast Lane Pass to get through airport security faster. You buy this pass for a specific day and time and in your own name.
See the Brussels Airport website for more details.
If you added a luxury package to your credit card, this includes use of the Brussels Airport lounge and its amenities.
How does it work?
- Open KBC Mobile and tap ‘Additional Services’
- Scroll to ‘Mobility’ and tap ‘Brussels Airport’
- Select ‘Fast Lane Pass’ or ‘Lounge Pass’ and follow the steps.
If you’re a KBC customer, you pay through your KBC current account. If you’re not with us, you can pay using the Bancontact app or another app that supports Bancontact payments.
Once you’ve completed the payment process, the Lounge Pass or Fast Lane Pass you purchased will appear in your tickets overview. The pass will also be sent to your mailbox.
Can I forward the Lounge Pass or Fast Lane Pass I purchased to someone else?
If you purchased a Lounge Pass or Fast Lane Pass, we will also send your pass to the e-mail address you provided to Brussels Airport, so you can share it with your fellow travellers or someone else.
Since Lounge Passes are not named, they can be used by anyone. Fast Lane Passes, however, are personalised and non-transferable.
If I remove KBC Mobile from my phone, where do I find my Brussels Airport passes?
If you remove KBC Mobile and don’t reinstall it, you’ll lose all the Fast Lane and Lounge passes you’ve bought. You can still use the passes by requesting them from the e-mail you received from Brussels Airport. Your passes are also available on the Brussels Airport website. Just log in to your account there to access them.
Who can I contact if I have any questions or problems?
If you have a specific question in Dutch, send it to proefexamen@vabrijschool.be.
If you have any technical or other specific questions in French, just contact our helpdesk:
This service is not available in German or English.
What can you do using this service?

- Scroll to ‘Payment services’ and tap ‘Loyalty cards’
- Select the shop whose loyalty card you want to add (if the shop’s not on the list, select ‘Add another card’)

Having your loyalty card scanned in-store
a) I’m a KBC customer

- Tap ‘Loyalty cards’ at the bottom of your screen (if you don’t see it there, hold your finger on another icon, go to settings and add ‘Loyalty cards’ as a favourite)

b) I’m not a KBC customer

What’s the difference between the ‘Loyalty cards’ feature and ‘Joyn’?
Joyn is a digital savings card which you can use in more than 7 500 local outlets that are affiliated to the Joyn loyalty programme. Once you’ve saved up enough points, you get a reward.
The ‘Loyalty cards’ feature enables you to digitise all your different loyalty cards, provided they have a bar code or QR code. We’ve developed this additional service in partnership with Joyn.
I’m unable to upload my loyalty card. What should I do?
You can report it to our helpdesk by sending an e-mail to extraservicessupport@kbc.be. Make sure you mention:
- What happened exactly (for instance, the scanner didn’t respond or you received an error message)
- The loyalty card involved (add a screenshot if you can)
- The type of device you are using
The bar code or QR code in KBC Mobile doesn’t match the bar code or QR code on my card. Can that be the case?
Loyalty cards with a bar code
It may well be that your digital loyalty card has more digits on it. These additional check digits won’t give rise to any problems in the shop. Make sure to compare the bar code of your card with the digital version. If you see that they don’t match, remove the card from KBC Mobile and try scanning it again.
Tip: rotate your loyalty card 90 degrees to get the best scan.
If the problem persists, report it to our helpdesk by sending an e-mail to extraservicessupport@kbc.be. Tell them which loyalty card it is (add a screenshot if you can) and the type of device you’re using.
Loyalty cards with a QR code
The QR code may look slightly different. In principle, it contains exactly the same information as the code on your plastic card, so try it out in a shop first before reporting it.
My card was not accepted in the shop. What should I do?
Check to see whether the bar code on your card matches your card in KBC Mobile. If it doesn’t, try scanning it again (tip: rotate your loyalty card 90 degrees before scanning it).
It is more difficult to check QR codes, because they can look slightly different but still contain the same information. If it isn’t accepted, you should scan it another time and try it out again in the shop.
If the problem persists, report it to our helpdesk by sending an e-mail to extraservicessupport@kbc.be. Tell them which loyalty card it is (add a screenshot if you can) and the type of device you’re using.
I’ve been using another app to store my loyalty cards. Is it easy to transfer those cards to KBC Mobile?
You can’t import cards from a different loyalty card app, which means you’ll need to upload your cards again one by one.
No longer have the cards?
If not, you can take photos of the cards in your app using another device and then scan those photos using KBC Mobile. Or, as a stopgap, you could install your loyalty card app on a tablet and then upload the cards to KBC Mobile by scanning them from your tablet.
What should I do if I want to stop using the service?
Call our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 and we’ll delete all your loyalty cards. If you’d like to start using the service again later, you’ll need to upload all your cards again.

What is the ‘Split group expenses’ feature?
This feature allows you to keep track of all the expenses you incur on behalf of a group (during a weekend away, for example). The application will correctly divide the expenses among all group members. A clear overview shows you who owes what to whom (and how much) and who is still owed money by whom (and how much). Once everything has been calculated, you can start the payment process or send a payment request.
Why does the application require access to my contacts?
The application has to send a message in order to invite people to join the group. To be able to contact them correctly, the service requires access to your contacts. Members of the group who are already using KBC Mobile will receive a notification, while those who don’t will receive a text message containing the appropriate instructions.
How do I add an expense?
Tap the group you created and select ‘Add expense’. You can enter an expense yourself or, if you’re a KBC customer, select it from your list of transactions carried out with your debit card, credit card or prepaid card. If you upload a photo of the receipt, the other group members will also be able to see it.
Can I delete a group?
Yes, you have the option to delete an inactive group. If you do this as the group’s administrator, the group will be deleted from the list of all members. If you do this as a group member, the group will only be deleted from your personal list. Groups that are still active cannot be deleted.
What is 'Energy-efficient at home'?
Our ‘Energy-efficient at home’ feature helps you make your home more energy-efficient and save on your energy bills.
After answering some questions about your home and energy management, we’ll provide you with an estimate of your home's energy-efficiency and a corresponding score. The ‘Energy-efficient at home’ screen also includes a number of informative articles related to your home and energy, all tailored to your personal situation.
If you’ve opted for ‘Personalised’ offers in your settings and use the ‘Energy-efficient at home’ service, you’ll also get an overview of products and services offered by KBC or its partners that may be useful for your home (such as energy insights, calculating renovation costs, installing solar panels, energy loans and insurance).
You’ll also see additional information on grants you may be eligible for when you carry out renovation work.
What is the energy score on the ‘Energy-efficient at home’ screen?
This score indicates how much your investments contribute to making your home energy-efficient. Calculating this score is not an exact science, but it is based on the input of various experts. It is not a replacement for your home’s EPC rating.
How can I add a second property?
You can only add one property at this time. If you’d like to calculate a score for another property, you should first delete the property whose details are already in the system. You can do this by tapping the three dots at the top right of the ‘Energy-efficient at home’ screen and then selecting ‘Remove property’.
Why are my gas and electricity data different from those in the ‘Energy insights’ service?
In the ‘Energy-efficient at home’ service, we compare your data with the previous month. For digital meters, we only look at what you’ve actually used over the previous few days.
In the ‘Energy insights’ service, we make an estimate of how much you’ll consume over the remainder of the current month.
What is Immoscoop?
Immoscoop is a property website to help you find your ideal home to rent or buy and also discover ‘Immoscoop only’ properties.
The range of properties offered on the site is growing every day and we will be further expanding the service over the next few months to include useful extras and even more personalised services.
What are ‘Immoscoop only’ properties?
Immoscoop works closely with a large network of estate agents who can list their properties as ‘Immoscoop only’. This means you get to see lots of houses and flats on Immoscoop that are not listed anywhere else. You can identify them by the special label in the search results.
What data do I need to share with Immoscoop?
We’ll send your name and e-mail address to Immoscoop. The first time you use this service, you will see a screen showing the information we share and a link to Immoscoop’s data protection statement. Their data protection statement can also be found by tapping the three dots at the top right.
How can I remove my account?
Send your first name, surname and e-mail address to info@immoscoop.be and ask them to remove your account.
What is the ‘Solar panels and battery’ feature?
This additional service allows you to simulate the costs and benefits of installing (additional) solar panels and a home battery. You can also indicate whether you already have these installed, which will then be factored into the simulation. You can also use the data from the simulation to receive a no-obligation estimate of how much our energy loan would cost you.
Once you’ve run the simulation, you can request a quote online, again without any obligation on your part. A contractor from the network of our partner ‘Impact us today’ will contact you within five business days to arrange a time for an installer to visit. You'll find all the details relating to your request in KBC Mobile.
Who can I contact if I have a technical question about these installations?
Contact ‘Impact us today’
What can you do using the ‘Energy insights’ feature?
This additional service closely monitors your electricity and gas consumption. We offer the service in collaboration with a specialised third party, Eliq. If you wish, Kate will let you know when your consumption is unusually high or low.
You can also use this service to set a target for keeping your energy use under control and get tips on how to reduce the amount of energy you consume.
What can you do using the ‘Value your property’ feature?
Wondering how much your home or building plot is worth? This additional service enables you to quickly and easily estimate the value of your home. Just answer a few questions and get an instant estimate generated by a digital model.
If you’re planning to sell your home and need a more accurate valuation, you can request a licensed estate agent from Immoscoop's network to value it, completely free of charge and without obligation. They will then contact you within the week for an appointment
Why should I have my property valued by an estate agent?
An estate agent will give you an accurate idea of the value of your home. They base their valuation on experience and knowledge, as well as on the price of other properties that have been sold in your area.
You also get useful tips from a professional and receive quality service and the reassurance that you’re in safe hands if you decide to sell.
Which types of real estate can I have valued?
The digital model can estimate the value of houses and flats in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia (but only land in Flanders and Brussels, provided the land in question already has an address).
It cannot be used to value non-residential real estate, such as retail property or offices.
Immoscoop can currently only estimate the value of your property in Flanders.
The estimate is not in line with my expectations. Why’s that?
The tool uses a thousand different criteria to arrive at the estimated value, making it one of the best tools in the market. Moreover, the valuation is constantly updated, so the figure generated cannot be compared with a valuation carried out several years ago.
However, bear in mind that it is just a tool and that it only gives an idea of the valuation. If a valuer estimates the value of a property on-site based on a number of specific criteria that can only be determined there and then, that valuation will generally be more accurate.
You can always enter a property valuation of your own and save it in your dashboard. When you do so, however, the valuation is no longer automatically updated.
What data do I need to share with Immoscoop, and why?
When you request a valuation, you agree to Immoscoop processing your contact details and the address of your property and to that information being shared with three estate agents to enable the valuation to be carried out. You can see how Immoscoop handles your data in their data protection statement.
What can you do using this additional service?
You can use it to get tips and ideas for home and energy-efficiency improvements, and advice on what needs to be carried out first and in what order. You can provide various details for each step and get a realistic estimate of the cost as well as a custom renovation report with your simulation, tips and tricks, advice on grants and subsidies, and other useful information.
This report is sufficient to apply for a loan. Quotes from contractors are no longer needed.
What can you do using the ‘Renovation quote’ feature?
This additional service provides you with a number of options for properly insulating and renovating your home, helping you cut your energy bills. If you wish, our partner ‘Impact us today’ can then put you in touch with a reliable contractor where you can ask for a quote.
Who do I contact if I have a question or a problem?
If you have any questions about your quote and the works, contact the contractor directly or get in touch with our partner ‘Impact us today’.
The contractor’s contact details can be found in the ‘Renovation quote’ service. You can see the details for ‘Impact us today’ by tapping the three dots at the top right of this service.

What are the differences between the registered e-mail from Ipex and the paper registered letter?
Qualified electronic registered delivery is an electronic delivery service that meets a number of additional legal requirements, including those relating to the identification of the sender and the addressee.
The Ipex registered e-mail is not a qualified service and, therefore, not automatically equated with the paper registered letter. This means that, if there is a dispute, you have to prove that the (identified) addressee actually received the registered e-mail. That’s why you have to be sure that the e-mail address used is correct (i.e. as it appears on the website, previous communications, business cards or invoices).
It also means that an Ipex registered e-mail is not suitable if the law requires a qualified electronic registered delivery service to be used (for example, when cancelling an insurance contract).
Can I cancel my insurance contract by Ipex registered e-mail?
No, the Insurance Act stipulates that for an insurance contract to be cancelled, a qualified electronic registered delivery service must be used. The registered e-mail in KBC Mobile does not meet this requirement.
Your insurance company may therefore refuse a cancellation request sent by Ipex registered e-mail.
What can you do using this additional service in KBC Mobile?
KBC Mobile lets you:
- Create and send registered e-mails
- Add attachments to your registered e-mails:
- Photos taken using your phone’s or tablet’s camera
- Various other types of files (DOC, XLS, PNG, JPG, PDF, etc.)
- See the status of any registered e-mails you’ve sent
What are the benefits of a registered e-mail?
A registered e-mail provides certainty about the content, the sender, when it was sent, the delivery to and receipt by the recipient.
For each registered e-mail, a record is kept of:
- When you sent it
- When it was delivered to the recipient
- When the recipient accepted or rejected it
How does creating and sending registered e-mails using KBC Mobile work?
- Enter the recipient’s name and e-mail address
Check that you’ve provided the correct e-mail address - Enter the subject
- Write the message you want to send to the recipient (optional) and/or add attachments (including pictures taken with your phone or tablet)
- Pay for your registered e-mail using KBC Mobile to have IPEX deliver your e-mail (and automatically get a copy of it)
- If you’ve sent a registered e-mail for your business, check your mailbox for an invoice from IPEX.
Where can I check the status of my registered e-mail?
The main view of our registered e-mail service in KBC Mobile always shows you the latest status of your registered e-mail. There’s also a link to a full history of your IPEX registered e-mails.
When the status of a registered e-mail changes, IPEX informs you by e-mail.
How does a recipient know that I’ve sent them a registered e-mail?
Recipients get an e-mail telling them that a registered e-mail has been sent to them. As with registered postal mail, recipients of registered e-mails can choose whether or not to accept them.
If they do, they receive a second e-mail with a link to download the actual registered e-mail.

How is my carbon footprint calculated?
To calculate the carbon footprint of your purchases, we use emission factors specific to the category of your purchase and the country where you made your purchase. The amount of your purchase is multiplied by the emission factor determined for the category of your purchase. This service is provided in partnership with ‘Connect Earth’.
Example:
- If every euro spent on groceries in Belgium corresponds to 0.3 kg of CO₂
- And you spend 100 euros in a supermarket
- We increase your footprint by 30 kg of CO₂ (0.3 kg of CO₂/euro x 100 euros)
Remember that, even if you spend the exact same amount of money, your footprint can vary widely depending on where you spend it. When buying bread from the local baker, for instance, your footprint could be 4 kg of CO2. That’s why we only provide an estimate of your carbon footprint. This calculation method is also commonly used in the industrial sector and the academic world.
Although the categorisation of retailers allows us to calculate your estimated footprint as accurately as possible, we need to point out that, since we don’t know exactly what items you purchased, the CO2 figures given in the app are only estimates. To get a more accurate calculation of your footprint, you can add the habits you have.
Good to know: we take account not only of CO₂ in the calculation, but also other similar gases. We do not include spending in the health, government, bank and insurance categories.
Who is Connect Earth?
Connect Earth is a leading company specialising in environmental data tools that works with banks to offer transparent insights into their carbon footprint, including estimates of the carbon footprint per transaction. Their tools use methods that are also used in the industrial sector and the academic world.
Good to know: Connect Earth will not use your carbon footprint data for any other purposes or sell it to other parties.
How does Connect Earth know what I purchased?
Connect Earth does not know exactly what you purchased. They can merely make an estimate of your footprint based on the category of the retailer where you made your purchase. These estimates are based on the environmental impact of products and services in a given sector.
Some examples
- Groceries: When you buy something in a supermarket, the estimate is based on the environmental impact of an average shopping basket in the country where you made your purchase. Aspects factored into this impact include production, packaging and transportation. This data allows us to estimate your footprint based on your spending, without needing detailed information on every item you purchased.
- Filling station: When you refuel your car, we know exactly how much fuel you purchased, allowing us to accurately calculate the corresponding footprint.
- General online retailers (such as Amazon): When you shop at general online retailers like Amazon, which sell many different items, we again assess the environmental impact of an average shopping basket, and your carbon footprint will therefore again be a rough estimate.
It is important to know that these kinds of purchases generally only make up a small fraction of a person’s total carbon footprint, as the lion’s share is attributable to purchases such as travel, energy and food.
How accurate are the estimates in the app?
The estimates in the app give a general idea of your purchases’ environmental impact.
The accuracy of the estimates depends on the quality of the underlying data and the completeness of sector averages. While most users find the estimates enough to gain a better understanding of their environmental impact, the estimates should be regarded as well-founded rather than accurate.
Why do I need to know my carbon footprint?
Some 60% to 70% of the world’s CO2 emissions today are directly or indirectly related to household consumption. So collectively we can make a big difference in combating climate change by contributing to more sustainable consumption and production of goods.
What if I don’t want to know more about my carbon footprint?
We calculate your carbon footprint when you select ‘Extra convenience’. You can disable the extra convenience feature by tapping your settings, scrolling to and tapping ‘Privacy’, then ‘Extra convenience’ and turning it off.
Don’t forget that a number of other services in KBC Mobile will also be deactivated when you turn off ‘Extra convenience’.
