Buckaroo brings Wero to merchants in Luxembourg and takes the next step in its European growth 

The migration from Payconiq to Wero has officially started in Luxembourg. As of September 1, 2026, Wero is available to consumers and businesses in Luxembourg. For Buckaroo, the migration is not only an important milestone in the rollout of Wero, but also the next step in its continued growth in the Benelux. 

Wero is the pan-European payment solution from the European Payments Initiative (EPI), developed to give consumers and merchants a strong European payment alternative. Following earlier launches in countries including Germany and Belgium, Luxembourg is the next market where Wero is becoming available. As part of this, the Payconiq payment platform in Luxembourg is being phased out.

A controlled transition for customers in Luxembourg 

Buckaroo plays a central role in the transition from Payconiq to Wero in Luxembourg. Behind the scenes, a great deal of work has gone into making the migration technically possible and keeping the impact on merchants and their customers as small as possible. 

A key part of this is compatibility with existing static Payconiq QR codes and QR codes on invoices. These QR codes remain valid until the end of 2026 and can be scanned directly with the Wero app. This means businesses can keep using their existing QR codes during the transition, while consumers gradually switch from Payconiq to Wero. Buckaroo also supports customers that offer Payconiq through a technical integration as they move to Wero.  

Building further in Luxembourg through a local presence 

For Buckaroo, the launch of Wero goes beyond this migration alone. Buckaroo has been active in the Netherlands and Belgium for many years. With a physical office in Luxembourg, the organization continues to build a strong position in the Benelux. 

This local presence allows Buckaroo to stay close to customers and partners in Luxembourg while drawing on the scale, technology and experience built up in other European markets. The migration from Payconiq to Wero is a first building block for further growth in the Luxembourg market. Buckaroo offers customers a complete package of services, including all payment methods and use cases needed in Luxembourg, as well as additional services for optimized management: operational information through portals, reports and files, credit management and financing solutions. 

The combination of local involvement and international experience matters most during a large-scale payment migration. Wero now serves around 58 million users in Europe and continues to expand across the continent. The result is a payment solution that consumers can increasingly use with confidence, both in their own country and abroad.
