What is Betalingsservice in Denmark?

Automatic payment of fixed bills.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Betalingsservice is the Danish service that pays recurring and one-off bills, such as subscriptions, memberships, insurance, loans and fees, directly from a bank account you choose. You sign a bill up for Betalingsservice in your netbank or in e-Boks, or on the company website when you buy a subscription online. The first bill must always be paid manually, and after that the payments are drawn automatically. Upcoming payments are listed in a payment overview (betalingsoversigt) that you see in the BS App or your netbank. As of November 2026 the service is run by Mastercard.

Practical info

Why

  1. Bills are paid on time without you having to remember them.
  2. You choose which account each payment comes from.
  3. Nine out of ten Danes know and use the service for fixed bills.

Details

Betalingsservice customer service for private users is on +45 80 81 07 07, Monday to Friday 9.00–16.00, and +45 43 32 67 51 from abroad.

Tip

Keep the first payment slip from a new supplier, because that bill has to be paid by hand before automatic payment starts.

What may differ

Each company decides whether it offers Betalingsservice.

Common misconception

Many think that leaving Betalingsservice also ends the subscription.

What actually happens

Cancelling the Betalingsservice agreement only stops the automatic payment; you must end the contract with the company yourself.
