Kriptomat is the point where EUR meets cryptocurrencies. We’re always trying to exceed the expectations of our users, which includes looking for new solutions on how to make the process of sending euros to Kriptomat more secure, reliable, faster, and affordable. One of the reasons why our users like us, is because we’re a global business acting local and we are constantly looking for new popular local payment solutions and other financial partners. After successful addition of Zimpler, we are excited to announce the popular Sofort (Klarna Group).

Use of Sofort for easier and faster entrance into the world of cryptocurrencies

We’re excited to announce that we’re introducing new payments options for Kriptomat, making it easier for our users to purchase their bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Sofort Überweisung or Sofort for short is a respected and secure payment service provider and is part of Klarna Group. Klarna is one of the leading providers for alternative payment methods in Europe with over 70,000 merchants and is trusted by over 60 million consumers.

Sofort offers a fast and easy payment of your online purchases and transactions including your cryptocurrencies just by providing your online banking details. Sofort proves their swiftness by immediately sending their clients a real-time confirmation of the transfer, and we know our users need fast transactions to exchange EUR for cryptocurrencies.

Using Sofort has several benefits when making your Kriptomat instant purchases.

First off, Sofort is very secure and safe to choose as a payment method because they don’t store personal and financial details. They utilize two platforms to really secure your transactions, PIN-code and TAN-code. These codes make it almost impossible for third parties to access your details and transactions.

Second, Sofort makes sure that transactions are instantly processed and delays are less likely to happen with Sofort.

Third, you don’t need to register an account at Sofort. All you need is an online banking account connected to Sofort and you’re good to go. No need to enter any lengthy card numbers, no need to create an account, no need for anyone to store your details. Just use your own online banking details to make a purchase. With an immediate transaction confirmation, your order will be processed immediately.

Which countries and currencies are supported by Sofort?

Sofort will be available to our users from Germany, Austria, UK, Spain, and Switzerland. The supported currency will be the euro (EUR).

The Sofort payment method is scheduled to be released in July!
