I think it's a security feature and I wouldn't want to write software for that. As long as I initiate the transmission, I'm in control of my account. Otherwise I have to check every transmission for validity. * Kamil Cholewiński <harry6...@gmail.com> [2016-09-22 16:09]: > In Poland, on most online shopping services, you click "pay with bank > transfer" at the checkout.

I would never do that. Having lot's of JS fiddling around in my bank account sounds scary. Also, any TAN system (be it SMS or whatever) is broken by design (and there are reports for people exploiting it for all of them). Cheers Jochen
