Among them are Bünting Group, with its online brands “Combi.de & MyTime.de”, as well as BAUR and Quelle, which are now preparing to offer Wero as a payment option to their customers. BAUR and Quelle – both online shops belonging to the BAUR-Gruppe – plan to integrate Wero into their “ComfortPay” service. Nexi will announce further online merchants connecting to Wero over the coming weeks.Martina Weimert, CEO of the European Payments Initiative: "We are pleased to see Nexi is offering Wero as a payment method for their merchants in Germany. At the end of 2025 we announced Wero’s upcoming roll-out for online purchases, so this is an important next step in bringing a new account-to-account payment experience to a broader range of merchants and customers in the German market."Roberto Catanzaro, Chief Business Officer, Merchant Solutions at Nexi, and EPI Board Member: "The implementation of Wero for BAUR, Quelle and Bünting marks an important milestone for Nexi and for the development of a more sovereign and competitive European payments landscape. As a leading European PayTech, Nexi is committed to enabling payment solutions that expand choice for merchants and consumers while combining simplicity, speed and security. We are pleased to support the rollout of Wero through Nexi Germany’s eCommerce integration and through Computop, our group company, which acts as the technical service provider for Wero."Wero is based on real-time, account-to-account transfers, and is designed to process payments faster, more cost-efficiently and in a sovereign European manner. Initially, the new payment method was introduced by its operating company, the European Payments Initiative (EPI), for person-to-person payments. Now it is being rolled out in eCommerce, with future plans to introduce Wero at the Point of Sale. The EPI is currently supported by 16 European banks and payment service providers, and Wero is now available in Belgium, France and Germany. Other European markets and partners will follow gradually.The partners will work together to bring the new, combined model to the German banking market.NoYesE-Commerce28 Apr, 2026
