I've heard about Bunq, Klarna, Revolut, and N26, but I'm not sure which one would be best for my needs. Has anyone had experience with these services in Germany? Which would you recommend and why?

Thanks in advance!

@ShadyQuark So in Germany it would be Bluecode. Idk how widely used it is.

I've lived in Poland and Sweden, Blik and Swish can be used almost everywhere, including many grocery stores and most online purchases (so it is an alternative to Visa/Mastercard as well).

To bad, in never heard of https://bluecode.com before.

Technically speaking it would be interesting to see if Bilk, Swish, Bluecode and Wero would be compatible to each other.

@SrMono They are not compatible. I would love them to be compatible as well.

If you go to "Milestones" on the EMPSA website linked above, you get the info about ongoing collaborations between the members. Bluecode is integrated with the Austrian and Italian counterparts, so lucky you to have at least that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, Wero seems more international.

So… in the EU we can get highly regulated bananas in 27 countries but need different Apps to digitally pay for them 🤣

@SrMono Haha, yeah, something did go wrong here. It should be easier to integrate.
