    Wero is set to be integrated into the Deutsche Bank Mobile and Postbank banking apps at a later date, allowing users to choose between the Wero app and their familiar mobile banking app.

    So… still reliant on Google & Amazon then? Or can their apps run independently of those companies?

      Good point, hope they are aware of that. But this is a much less dangerous reliance compared to how we rely on visa and mastercard.

        Not sure about “dangerous”, Mastercard and Visa have to comply with PCIDSS…

          Yes they do: https://support.apple.com/de-de/guide/security/sec72cb155f4/web

          Außerdem überwachen die Server die Sicherheit der „Tap to Pay“-Geräte so, dass sie mit dem CPoC-Standard (Contactless Payments on COTS) des Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) kompatibel sind und PCI DSS einhalten.

      Don’t let perfect be the enemy of better. It’s a big step in the right direction.
