Sofortüberweisung: Overview of fees

Many online shops now offer Sofortüberweisung as a payment method. In this practical tip, we clarify to what extent fees apply to you or not.

These costs arise with an immediate transfer

The immediate transfer has the advantage that the online retailer receives a confirmation of your transfer promptly. In return, he can get your order on the way immediately so that you receive the ordered goods quickly. This is realized by Sofort GmbH, a subsidiary of the Klana Internet payment service.

• The company does not charge you any fees if you use the Sofortüberweisung service. You don't need an account at "Sofortüberweisung.de" either.
