They are now hesitantly joining Wero, supporting it only to downplay and to lobby ECB for an API platform and not for a product.

I've used BLIK once, for an online payment from the Netherlands to Poland, and for that it was terrible. I assume it's much better integrated into the Polish system.

BLIK was launched in 2015 according to Wikipedia; iDeal is from 2005.
