Through partnering with Yapily, BUX Zero customers can conveniently make deposits to their BUX Zero accounts from within their bank’s mobile banking app. Removing the friction involved in investing and opening access to bank accounts in Germany.

This partnership will allow German BUX Zero users to begin investing in the brands and companies they care about commission-free, in an easy, and intuitive way. With a simple and quick onboarding solution already in place, funding an account will now be equally as quick and simple.

Typically, German BUX Zero users funded their accounts through bank transfers; taking on average one working day to arrive. The integration of Yapily’s open banking API enables BUX Zero to enhance its customers’ experience by removing the friction, which speeds up the process in making deposits to their BUX Zero accounts.

The new collaboration further consolidates Yapily’s position in Europe as the backbone of open banking, and the infrastructure that partners need in order to take advantage of the benefits that open finance will bring. By entering Germany, Yapily now has near total European coverage.

Nick Bortot, Founder & CEO of BUX said: “Efficiency and ease-of-use are at the core of the BUX Zero investing experience, and by introducing Yapily’s API technology to our platform, we will make the account funding experience even simpler for our German clients. With our zero-commission offering, rapid onboarding process and seamless user-experience, we are constantly innovating to make the investing experience smoother for our clients who are digital natives. This new generation of investors requires an investing experience that fits their mobile-first lifestyle, and BUX Zero is at the forefront of providing a better solution for retail investors. As BUX Zero continues to expand across Europe, partnering with Yapily will allow us to adapt to local markets more efficiently.

Stefano Vaccino, CEO of Yapily said: “Drawing on our technical expertise, we’ve been able to provide BUX’s German customers with a better customer experience and greater control over their finances. We are integrated with 80% of Germany’s banks; which enables us to provide companies like BUX with the infrastructure they need in order to provide the benefits of open banking to users beyond their native market.

“Through partnering with BUX, we’re continuing our mission to further expand the reach of open banking across Europe. We believe open banking will enable fairer and better financial products and services for all. And we’re pleased to have found a partner in BUX who believes the same. We look forward to a long partnership and underpinning future products and services which can fuel greater financial accessibility.”
