This makes boon, Wirecard's mobile payment app, the first of its
kind to create an integrated payment and banking experience for end
consumers. In the first phase, several hundred accounts will test the
solution. The full launch will take place from October this year.
Starting with Germany, all existing boon payment users will then have
the opportunity to add banking to their existing boon account. New
customers will also be able to register directly for both services,
which are available separately as well.
In addition to the fully digital and comprehensive bank account,
users will be able to make SEPA transfers to third parties. They will
also be able to use a physical Debit Mastercard in combination with
their app. In future, value-added services such as innovative loyalty
solutions and other digital financial services such as mobile
insurance will be added. For example, products that users buy with
boon could be insured at the same time.
Claudia Kaub, Head of Consumer Solutions at Wirecard, says, "We
are very pleased to start the pilot phase of boon Planet. As the name
suggests, in the future we will offer all our users the whole world
of digital payment and banking. Once again, we are demonstrating our
pioneering spirit and offering consumers everything from a single
source. With boon Planet, we will set new standards so that our users
no longer have to leave the app for their everyday finances."
boon is based on the Wirecard Financial Commerce Platform - from
the front end to the back end - and will in future be the Group's
only B2C product. Today, boon is available throughout Europe via
Apple Pay, Google Pay, Garmin Pay and Fitbit Pay. In future, boon
will also be launched outside of Europe. boon can also be used as a
complete white label or co-branded solution for Wirecard's existing
and future corporate partners.
boon will inform all users as soon as the new boon Planet solution
is fully available.
