How to Buy Fortnite V-Bucks with Bancontact in Belgium

Quick answer
Bancontact is not accepted directly at the Epic Games Store, but you can use it to buy V-Bucks by purchasing a Fortnite gift card at a Belgian reseller. Platforms like Startselect.be and Dundle.be list Bancontact as a payment option for Fortnite gift cards in Belgium. Choose your denomination, pay with Bancontact at the reseller, then redeem the code at fortnite.com/vbuckscard to add V-Bucks to your Epic account.

How Bancontact Works for This Purchase

Bancontact is not accepted directly by Epic Games, but Belgian shoppers can use it to buy Fortnite gift cards at resellers like Startselect and Dundle, then redeem the code for V-Bucks. This is the standard route for buying V-Bucks with Bancontact in Belgium: reseller first, Epic redemption second.

Bancontact is Belgium's dominant online payment method, handling roughly 78% of Belgian e-commerce transactions (Landmark Global, 2025). The Epic Games Store checkout does not support it. Resellers like Startselect and Dundle list Bancontact alongside Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, and Klarna as accepted payment options for their Belgian Fortnite gift cards (Startselect, 2026).

When you purchase a Fortnite gift card this way, you receive a code that you enter on the Epic Games redemption page. The credit is added to your Epic account and can be spent on V-Bucks, Fortnite Crew subscriptions, and other Epic Games Store purchases.

Epic has replaced older V-Bucks-only cards with Fortnite gift cards. The new card covers V-Bucks, Crew subscriptions, and other Epic Games Store content, giving it broader use than the older format.

Step-by-Step: Buying V-Bucks with Bancontact

Step 1: Go to a Belgian Fortnite Gift Card Reseller

Open Startselect.be or Dundle.be and search for Fortnite gift cards. Both platforms serve Belgian customers and support Bancontact at checkout. Select a card in euros.

Step 2: Choose a Denomination

Select the value you want. As a reference from Startselect (2026): approximately €12.99 for 1,000 V-Bucks and €89.99 for 13,500 V-Bucks. Prices are set by the reseller and may vary slightly.

Step 3: Pay with Bancontact at Checkout

Add the card to your basket and proceed to checkout. Choose Bancontact from the available payment options. Your bank will redirect you to its secure authentication screen to confirm the payment. The transaction typically completes within a few seconds.

Step 4: Save Your Gift Card Code

After payment is confirmed, the code arrives in your email or appears on the confirmation page. Keep it safe before proceeding to the next step.

Step 5: Redeem at fortnite.com/vbuckscard

Go to fortnite.com/vbuckscard and sign in with your Epic Games account. Enter the code exactly as shown. Your V-Bucks balance updates immediately.

Fees, Limits, and Availability

Bancontact is available only to Belgian shoppers paying in euros, and it is not supported in any other European country (Bancontact, 2026). Epic charges no fee for redeeming a gift card code.

Fortnite gift card prices at Belgian resellers range from approximately €8.99 to €89.99 depending on the denomination. Prices differ slightly between platforms, so compare Startselect and Dundle before buying (Startselect, 2026). No minimum purchase amount is stated for Bancontact online transactions.

V-Bucks credited to your Epic account balance do not carry over to Nintendo Switch. On Switch, V-Bucks must be purchased directly through the Nintendo eShop with a Nintendo-supported payment method.
