Yes, Penta is compatible with our offering. We do have a great partnership with Commerzbank (https://www.commerzbank.de/portal/de/unternehmerkunden/produkte/konto-zahlungsverkehr/gruenderangebot/gruenderangebot.html https://www.commerzbank.de/portal/de/unternehmerkunden/produ...) but you can pick any bank to deposit your share capital and run operations. We are actively referring customers traditional German banks as well as different neo banks.
It is a little difficult to compare Penta with Commerzbank. First of all, Penta is not a bank while Commerzbank is. Penta is an user interface on top of Solarisbank (https://www.solarisbank.com/en/ https://www.solarisbank.com/en/). Once you are registered with Penta you will receive your bank details from Solarisbank (BIC SOBKDEBBXXX). Second, Penta does not have the important accounting integrations yet. As of today they offer you lexoffice, sevDesk, CANDIS, Debitoor, Buchhaltungsbutler or FastBill. This integrations are actively used by the entrepreneur and not the tax firm. This services or tools are all good, but if you are looking to outsource what you want is an integration to DATEV (https://www.datev.de/ https://www.datev.de/). DATEV is the number one tax software provider and used by all major tax accounting firms in Germany. Commerzbank offers you an integration to DATEV via their COINFO service so that all banking transactions flow into your accountants system automatically. You can achieve the same thing with integrations Penta offers, but then you will use these service as a proxy to DATEV. Penta is working since more than 2 years on a DATEV integration. I assume it is just a matter of time when they can provide this natively (https://help.getpenta.com/en/support/solutions/articles/15000008812-can-i-integrate-my-penta-account-with-datev- https://help.getpenta.com/en/support/solutions/articles/1500...).
