It was formed in 1989 through the merge of ATM/POS networks of Bancontact and Mister cash. It also developed the Proton system, which was later spun-off into Proton World International.

The Belgian antitrust authority noted that Banksys was too dominant in the market for payment services. The Union of Self-Employed Entrepreneurs noted in 2003 that this issue has not been fixed. Banksys was merged with Atos Worldline at the end of 2006, together with the Bank Card Company.
