Hello everyone,
I’m living in Germany and looking for a good PayPal alternative. I mainly need it for:
- Sending money to friends
- Paying online, especially to small vendors
- Ordering food and everyday purchases
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 #N26 is also run by #PeterThiel and I do recommend to just get a basic account if you already are in Germany.
Don’t take my.word for it: @BaFin is the authority on that matter!

The main problem is that banks in the #EU csn only do #SEPA and #SWIFT, so if a recipient in in the #USA they may not even have an #IBAN!
@ShadyQuark #Klarna works great as #PaymentProcessor…
