From today, 26 October 2026, and for the next three months, consumers who pay with IRIS Payments at a POS terminal using their bank’s mobile banking app have the chance to win supermarket vouchers worth €1,300 per winner.
For the first time, seven banks – Alpha Bank, Eurobank, National Bank of Greece, Piraeus Bank, CrediaBank, Optima bank and Chania Cooperative Bank – are joining forces with DIAS in a joint initiative to boost the use of IRIS Payments in physical shops.
IRIS Payments is a Greek instant payments solution developed by DIAS in cooperation with the country’s banking system. It allows consumers to pay directly from their bank accounts through their bank’s mobile banking app, easily, quickly and securely.
Under the campaign’s slogan, “Everyone loves winning with IRIS”, consumers are encouraged to choose IRIS Payments for their everyday purchases, giving them an extra reason to use it more often.
Each time a consumer pays at a POS terminal with IRIS Payments, they receive one entry in the draw. The more purchases they make with IRIS Payments, the more entries they collect and the greater their chances of winning. The process is simple: consumers ask to pay with IRIS Payments at the till and scan the QR code displayed on the POS screen using their bank’s mobile banking app.
Over the next three months, each participating bank will select one lucky winner a month in a draw. Each winner will receive supermarket vouchers worth €1,300.
The initiative marks a further step towards establishing IRIS Payments as an everyday payment option in physical retail. It also aims to encourage merchants to actively recommend IRIS Payments as an additional payment option alongside cash and cards.
The campaign will be promoted through coordinated communications by the seven banks and DIAS, highlighting the strength of cooperation across the banking ecosystem.
Entry into the draws is subject to the terms and conditions of the promotion.
