If in the EU. Try WERO and tell your bank how to make it better if you truly care about an alternative to PayPal and the Visa/Master duopoly.

@jwildeboer hopefully the "become better and better" includes wero from migrating to an european cloud service instead of using aws.
@mc Tell them. PayPal and Visa/Master aren’t better in that regard. Change through use beats criticising from the sidelines.

@jwildeboer I opened a ticket about WERO support with my bank end of last year and they responded, that they have no plans to support it
@Larvitz So change to a bank that does

Understand that alternatives are never better or perfect from the get-go but that we need to tell them through using them how to become better and better.
@jwildeboer unfortunately not available here in Italy

@jwildeboer the first step would be to Tell My bank to implement it. #DKB
@tork7 Or to vote with your money and switch to a bank that does.

@jwildeboer in a worst case scenario paypal and credit cards are effectively unusable. hence i already forwarded my comment to my personal bank and EPI.

@jwildeboer well it is hard to try when it's not available yet. For now it is only Germany, France and Belgium. It will take a few years before it will be wider available. Here in the Netherlands, we only see a Wero logo next to the iDEAL logo, and it will be during 2027 before we actually see anything from it.
But it definitely is an interesting development.

@schmitzel76 „only“ Germany, France and Belgium still means many millions of potential users.

@Larvitz @jwildeboer Same here, they told me "not in this decade"

@Larvitz @jwildeboer Same here. Triodos Bank in Germany also had no intentions to implement Wero. Then I found out that they are going to retreat from Germany anyway. So I chose a new Bank with a good perspective concerning Wero. That's life, I guess.
