Deutsche Bank launches Wero for more simple and sovereign digital payments in Europe
Effective immediately, Deutsche Bank and Postbank are offering their clients the full range of functions of the new digital payment app Wero. Since the beginning of the week, clients of both banks have been able to send and receive money in real time to family and friends across Europe with Wero, as well as pay in participating online shops. Postbank clients, who have already been able to transfer money to personal contacts with Wero since November 2024, have now been given the e-commerce function.
“Following the successful launch at Postbank, we are very pleased to offer the full range of Wero’s functions at Deutsche Bank and Postbank,” said Dominik Hennen, Head of Personal Banking at Deutsche Bank. “Wero is a decisive step towards a unified European payment landscape. We offer our clients an innovative solution that simplifies private and e-commerce payments even across national borders.”
“For Wero’s success, it is crucial that people can easily use the European payment solution in their daily lives. As The Global Hausbank, we not only offer Wero to our private clients, but are also a partner for European merchants and fintechs. We help them seamlessly integrate Wero as a payment option and reach their clients in Germany and four other European countries,” explained Kilian Thalhammer, Head of Merchant Solutions at Deutsche Bank.
