Today, over 1 million financial transactions are being passed between accounts every day. The system that was initially shaped to target the German market, is also accessible to Giropay users in Austria and the Netherlands. There are over 1,500 local banks participating in the system.
Those looking for Giropay in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and other countries will need to check for local alternatives.
So, what is Giropay in Germany, and how to pay with the option?
In order to use this system, you will need to be from one of the three countries to which it caters, and to have a bank account. You will then need to visit the official website (!!!) and set up an account.
This is a simple procedure with certain peculiarities, but once it is done, you will be able to transact from your Giropay account to other cards, e-wallets including PayPal. You will also be able to buy Bitcoin and a Paysafecard with Giropay, although if you are considering using it only for casino gaming, it is more logical to pick one of over 100 online operators compliant with this payment system.
