The German launch of Google Pay has been completed and the savings banks are not interested. Are the chances better for Apple Pay?
The number of banks supporting Google Pay is currently very limited. This was also the case when it was launched in the US. How it will develop in Germany remains to be seen.

The fact is that the savings banks are currently in a tweet reject the support of Google Pay. "A cooperation with Google is not an option in Germany," says the Sparkasse.
The same tweet also explains why this is the case, namely that the savings banks will be launching their own solution, the “Mobile Payment App”, on the market from August 2018.
So there is a solution for Android smartphones.
But what about Apple Pay? Yes or no?
Sparkasse also commented on this today: “We are fundamentally interested in Apple Pay.” – and we are even more interested!
