Turning 25 means it’s time to choose your account!

Your KBC Brussels Plus Account is completely free of charge until the time you turn 25. You then have two options:

 

  1. You keep all the benefits of your KBC Brussels Plus Account for 3.75 euros a month.
  2. Or you can change your account to a KBC Brussels Basic Account for 2.00 euros* a month. In that case, however, you will no longer be able to do a number of things, such as use Apple Pay and withdraw cash free of charge from other banks in Belgium and Europe. 

 

In both cases, you can continue to use your existing account number and debit card.

What you need to do

  • If you want to keep your KBC Brussels Plus Account, you don't have to do anything. You will automatically be charged for your account as of the month you turn 25, but you retain all your options and benefits.
  • If you’d like to change your account to a KBC Brussels Basic Account, you can easily go about it in KBC Brussels Mobile. See how.
