The reason: From Tuesday 50 million customers of German savings banks can use DieBlitzüberweisung. This promises instant payment, seconds Überweisungvon one account to anor, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. About half of all current accounts in Germany are thus quickly reachable from DieserWoche. The customers of HypoVereinsbank have DieseMöglichkeit a little longer. Deutsche Bank intends to follow next November, with popular banks and Raiffeisen banks also planning a similar offer.
No question: Many customers who use PayPal have only a tired smile. But savings banks are now starting to catch up.

if ( typeof AdController !== ‘undefined’ !window.Zeit.isMobileView()) { if ( !document.getElementById( ‘iqadtile4’ ) ) { var elem = document.createElement( ‘div’ ); elem.id = ‘iqadtile4’; elem.className = “ad ad-desktop ad-desktop–4 ad-desktop–4-on-article”; elem.setAttribute(‘data-banner-type’, ‘desktop’); document.getElementById(‘ad-desktop-4’).parentNode.appendChild(elem); AdController.render(‘iqadtile4’); if ( window.console typeof window.console.info === ‘function’ ) { window.console.info(‘AdController ‘ AdController.VERSION ‘ tile 4 desktop’) } } } if ( typeof AdController !== ‘undefined’ window.Zeit.isMobileView()) { if ( !document.getElementById( ‘iqadtile4’ ) ) { var elem = document.createElement( ‘div’ ); elem.id = ‘iqadtile4’; elem.className = “ad ad-mobile ad-mobile–4 ad-mobile–4-on-article”; elem.setAttribute(‘data-banner-type’, ‘mobile’); document.getElementById(‘ad-mobile-4’).parentNode.appendChild(elem); AdController.render(‘iqadtile4’); if ( window.console typeof window.console.info === ‘function’ ) { window.console.info(‘AdController ‘ AdController.VERSION ‘ tile 4 mobile’) } } }
But not all tax offices have an account with HypoVereinsbank. What we would be at heart of problem: really fast transfer only if sender and receiver use new way of sending money. The customers of HypoVereinsbankkonnten Send as fast as y wanted: if recipient did not also einenZugang to instant payment, ir computer showed a kind of error message in online banking and referred m to normal slow Überweisungsweg. Dennbislang, number of German credit institutions that take part has been limited.
That is why new payment highway is also far from being implemented eight months after introduction. The experience is “quite promising”, explains HypoVereinsbank cautiously. Even in advertising for expensive exclusive account that SchnelleDienstleistung includes free of charge, instant payment is not mentioned.
