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!

Is that something that people use in daily life for consumables? the only thing similar I can imagine that we have around is utilities bills that come in the mail to pay water and those things and you have a bunch of days to pay on the ATM if not using direct debit from the bank account.

It was a more common thing but too many people abused it so less and less offer it. Happened to me too. Lost many bucks.

But yes, seems like your utility-bills. Pay however in due time, but pay.

B2B it's still very common though. Just B2C died a bit.
