In addition to the existing service of credit card acceptance in stationary POS business, the subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, will, with immediate effect, directly offer payment terminals and the national card payment methods girocard, direct debit and GeldKarte in the German market. As a result, it now offers a complete range of services for card payment acceptance and processing in the POS business analogue to its existing distance selling services.
