Commerzbank has turned to Google for its mobile payments in Germany – giving the bank’s customers the option to pay via smartphone.
According to Commerzbank, it is the first major bank in the country to use Google Pay.
“Together with our subsidiary comdirect, we are one of the pioneers in Germany when it comes to mobile payment,” says Michael Mandel, retail banking board member of Commerzbank.
Paying with Google Pay works in a similar way to a contactless payment by credit card or girocard.
