Most fraud never reaches you

Our systems watch for trouble around the clock — and when something needs a human, one is always a tap away.

SOS Hotline

In an emergency, reach a bunq specialist in seconds. No queues, no loops — a real person when every minute counts.

Control

Something feel off? Freeze your card or your whole account in under a minute, right from the app — and unfreeze just as fast when you're sure.

Safety Shield

If a payment looks unusual, we pause it for 24 hours. That pause is your chance to stop a scam before the money's gone for good.

IBAN Name Check

Before your money moves, we check the recipient's name matches the account. If it doesn't, we'll flag it so you can look twice.

Remote-access detection

We can spot screen-sharing and remote-control apps running during a session — a favourite scammer trick — and step in before they do harm.

Finn

bunq's AI assistant answers your questions the moment you ask, day or night. Need a person? A human guide is always one tap behind Finn.
