German here. I am using DKB since forever. Not as hip as N26 but pretty solid online bank with free VISA and free cash withdrawals. Unfortunately I have learned that they also invest in funds that ultimately fund weapons manufacturers.
A few years ago I have gotten a joint account with my wife over at GLS. Not as Internet savvy company but finally Apple Pay for their credit cards. They are investing in a lot of green tech, small businesses. Probably they have invest in some esoteric shenanigans but as a customer of that bank you can actually choose where your Money gets invested.
- ahartmetz 6y agoYeah, DKB is pretty cool. No monthly fees or fees for transactions, get money from ATMs without fee in the whole world (and from all ATMs in Germany) with the DKB credit card. "Hip" is really the last thing I want in a bank, the N26 advertising totally misses the mark for me. Their technology seems to be kind of crap, too. Security holes due to gross incompetence. https://media.ccc.de/v/33c3-7969-shut_up_and_take_my_money https://media.ccc.de/v/33c3-7969-shut_up_and_take_my_money
- boruto 6y agoThis is a bit long back. They came a long way now in terms of security. DKB rejects applications unless you have German PR or citizenship and it is mainly in German. Here is a DKB subsidiary https://www.dkbcodefactory.com/ https://www.dkbcodefactory.com/ advertising as a start-up.
