How can I top up my account?

Written by François

Adding funds to your Vivid account was never this easy! You can now top up your account in 4 different ways. Just start by accessing your app and tapping "+" in the main screen or in a pocket to add money to your account. Enter the amount you want to top up and choose any out of these 4 methods:

1. Top up your Vivid account instantly by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Get full details here.

2. SEPA and Instant SEPA : Receive a transfer by entering your IBAN, which can be found in the pocket details section of any of your pockets. If the sender's bank is compatible with Instant SEPA transfers, your funds will swiftly arrive in your Vivid account in just a matter of minutes. Standard SEPA transfers take up to 1 business day, as their completion depends on the required processing time.

3. Request money from a friend following these instructions:

  • From the main screen, click "Add Money"

  • Under Other options, select "Request from a friend"

  • Select the person from the list or add a new friend

  • Type in the amount you want to request

  • Click "Continue"

  • Confirm the request

4. Transfer balance from your PayPal app:

  • Go to your PayPal Account

  • Tap your PayPal balance.

  • Tap “Transfer”.

  • Tap “Transfer to bank” at the bottom of the screen.

  • Select in minutes or in 1-3 days.

  • Add your Vivid IBAN manually if it is not shown as a transfer connection in PayPal

  • Tap “Transfer Now”.

Vivid Money S.A., an Electronic Money Institution (EMI), partners with Banking Circle to provide IBANs for your account. As a result, when you use your Vivid IBAN for SEPA transfers or provide your account details to payment recipients like PayPal or online merchants, you may observe Banking Circle identified as the financial institution involved.
