These benefits are guaranteed within the limits (conditions and/or terms) set in the partner’s offer. To participate in a campaign, the ING Belgium client must register via the “ING+ Deals” page of ING Belgium’s Home’Bank / ING Banking services. Before registering, the client must reference an account to which all discounts due under the campaigns will be refunded.
