This announcement follows the recent unveiling of PayPal’s innovative new in-store payment experiences.
Over 1 million users sign up to PayPal it in-store
PayPal’s first-ever contactless mobile wallet is now available nationwide in Germany, before anywhere else in the world. Over 1 million users have already signed up to start using PayPal in-store. The new contactless feature can be accessed through the latest version of the popular PayPal App (both iOS and Android). Customers can pay safely and easily with a simple tap of their phone at any location that accepts Mastercard contactless payments, as well as benefit from Deal Week offers, once activated in the PayPal app, at approximately 2,000 partner locations4. For the first time, the PayPal App brings together a consolidated view of both online and offline purchases for the consumer.
PayPal Ratenzahlung To Go
The latest version of the PayPal App also enables consumers to pay in installments for in-store purchases with Ratenzahlung To Go. Fast and flexible, customers can seamlessly apply directly in the PayPal App at any time. Ratenzahlung To Go is available in 3, 6, 12 and 24-month installments, helping consumers spread the cost of in-store purchases to meet their needs (in addition to PayPal’s popular online Pay Later options).
“Why pay with cash when cash doesn’t pay you back? We are determined to show Germany there’s a better way to pay in-store – with the safety and ease of our contactless wallet, with the flexibility of installments, and by helping put money back in your pocket with Deal Week,” says Joerg Kablitz, Managing Director of Germany, Austria & Switzerland, at PayPal. “And now, some of Germany’s favorite brands – across clothing, footwear, DIY, furniture, and entertainment – have joined PayPal to revolutionize in-store payments.”
Joerg adds, “This is PayPal’s biggest ever investment in product development for our customers in Germany. Based on the initial response, we think this could be the tipping point at which consumers and businesses embrace alternatives to cash.”
