As far as I know, Giropay is being replaced by Wero, which is already supported by some banks in different European countries.

It is so far one if the better PayPal/Visa/MasterCard alternatives I‘ve used, but adoption is still a problem.

Yeah I’ve got a notification about Wero in my Sparkasse App but haven’t bothered checking it out yet lol

I have a couple of friends that seem to like it tho, I just rarely send any money
