There are no more excuses to settle accounts after paying for dinner, buying a present a pasha or go on vacation with a crew and bear the costs: you use Bizum and settle your accounts quickly and easily. But Bizum is not only aimed at individuals, since you can also use it for your company or business, provided you take into account that it is subject to compliance with the Treasury under penalty of fines and certain restrictions.
One of them, the one a phone number can only be assigned to one bank account number. But you can do something: use Bizum with the same phone and two different bank accounts.
In the frequently asked questions on the official Bizum website, the service is clear: to be able to use Bizum “it is enough to have a bank account (IBAN) in Europe with one of the entities that offer the service and a mobile phone number.”
At this point you will have to download the corresponding application from your bank in the Play Store or the Apple Store (if you are using an iPhone) and then enter your credentials to access the Bizum section and thus start the use. Now comes the question of telephones and bank accounts.
One phone, two Bizum accounts
As we progress through the introduction:
“A phone number can only be assigned to one bank account number (IBAN). However, you can change the selected account and bank as many times as you want.”
That is to say, only one phone number per account.
but yes you can associate multiple phone numbers to the same account. For example, if you and your partner use the same bank account, both parts of the couple can register by linking their respective phone numbers to said account.
What if you want two Bizum accounts on your phone? So you need two mobile numbers and two bank accounts. But that shouldn’t be a problem: if you have a phone with two SIM slots (which in practice is only present in phones in the Android ecosystem), then in practice you can have two SIM cards with their two different numbers.
Hello, @Bizum_ES! I have a question: can I have two bizum on the same phone with two different sims? Thank you!

Of course you will also need have two bank accounts linked to Bizum, after downloading their respective application and activating Bizum there to associate your two mobile numbers. This case can be very useful, for example, for freelancers who use a telephone line and an account for their professional use and their personal account and telephone number.
