It seems like there was a big leap forward for wero.

If you search for “wero” in the German news, it seems like a lot of banks activated it yesterday-ish.

Mine is covered 🙂

I’m a little bit disappointed, that my cell phone number is the unique ID for transactions.

Edit:

Tried to search which banks are supported. This is just a selection and even the selector on the wero-webpage is not up-to-date.

  • Germany: Deutsche Bank, DZ Bank, GLS, Savings Banks Association (DSGV), Postbank, BBBank, Sparkasse, Haspa, Volksbank, Sparda Banken, Ethikbank, Evangelische Bank e.G.,…
  • France: Société Générale, Crédit Agricole, BNP Paribas.
  • Other: ING, Rabobank, Revolut.

    It will be, when the merchants adopt it.

    Regarding the phone. It looks as if you can perform transactions by phone, name or e-Mail. It was my banks decision to got with the phone as primary identifier. I guess QR-code transaction will be the most common way of transferring person 2 person, if they are within visible range.

      Merchants will still take a while. From the website:

      Starting in 2026, one simple integration will connect merchants like you to every Wero user across Europe

      Merchants should contact their Payment service Providers first to integrate with Wero.

        e-commerce will be rolled out this summer in Germany, with Belgium and France following in late 2025/early 2026.
