Summer vibes only with Bancontact Pay and air.
A wasp flying round your plate, a cloud drifting right in front of the sun, a mosquito buzzing round your ears in the middle of the night… There are just some things in summer that instantly spoil the atmosphere. Little nuisances that disrupt the moment. In short: real vibe killers.

Except that these days, the biggest vibe killer doesn’t always come with wings, clouds or a buzzing sound. Sometimes it just comes down to one question. You’re sitting on a terrace with a friend, enjoying the sun and a lovely cocktail, and having a cosy chat. Gradually, you’re running out of things to say. Just like the cocktails. It’s almost time to move on. But above all: it’s almost time to ask that one question: “Will you pay me back?” And that can sometimes feel a bit awkward.
Because sometimes it only takes one sentence to turn a summer moment on its head, as if a cloud had suddenly drifted over the table. Gone is the atmosphere.
It’s precisely this parallel that air, CZAR and Victor Vercammen illustrate in their new campaign film for Bancontact Pay. A 20-second film in which the request for a refund creates a chilly atmosphere… literally. Until Bancontact Pay steps in, dispels the clouds and lets the sun shine again.

Bancontact Pay is mobile, secure and easy. So there’s not a cloud in the sky. That way, you can enjoy the summer without a care in the world. That’s also the campaign’s message: “Summer Vibes Only with Bancontact Pay”. This message also appears on B-bocks and posters in bars, restaurants and cafés. In short: wherever people are enjoying the summer, spending money and, of course, paying each other back.
So this summer too: keep the vibe going and get paid back with Bancontact Pay.
