SurePay is hosting an exclusive roundtable in Bucharest on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, from 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM at The Marmorosch Bucharest, Autograph Collection, bringing together banks, PSPs, and payment experts for a practical and open discussion.
As instant payments continue to expand across Europe, the need for reliable verification and fraud prevention is becoming increasingly urgent. Markets that have already adopted VOP show clear lessons, both in implementation and in reducing fraud risk.
Banks that start preparing early will have a clear advantage.
Topics include:
. Preparing for VOP in Romania
. Fraud trends in instant payments
Lessons learned from across European markets
Collaboration across banks and the wider ecosystem
The SurePay VOP Roadshow is taking place across Central and Eastern Europe, with Poland, Bulgaria, and Romania as the target countries.
These roundtables are designed as an interactive discussion, allowing participants to share experiences, challenges and perspectives with peers.
Places are limited.
Please register to confirm your attendance.

Verification of Payee (VOP) it’s a security check used before a bank transfer is sent, especially in European instant payment systems such as SEPA Instant. The idea is simple: before the money leaves your account, your bank checks whether the name you entered matches the account holder linked to the recipient’s IBAN. If you’re in Europe (including Romania), you’re increasingly likely to see these checks in banking apps as instant-payment rules expand.
