Set up Apple Pay with a Deutsche Bank Maestro card?
And I have the problem that I would like to add my Deutsche Bank Messtro card to my Apple wallet, but it's not working. I keep getting a message saying my bank card isn't compatible. Does it also say online that you should be able to set up the process with a Maestro card?
It then says that I need a debit or credit card for Apple Pay?
Do I really need this and how can I make it possible to pay with my mobile phone? Many of my friends do this too, but they don't have credit cards…
Do I then have to make an appointment at the bank and get a new card? And does a debit card cost more? Can I also use it to order online, for example, from Amazon or something else?
thanks in advance 🙂
It seems that Apple Pay is not compatible with a Maestro card.
Instead, you need one Debit or credit card. Here are the steps you can take:
As regards costs, they vary depending on the bank and type of card. A virtual debit card could cause additional charges, but often these are lower than that of a physical card. It is worth checking directly with your bank.

But you can also do the following.
Add Paypal and pay in shops.
This does not work with the Maestro card (Girocard) of Deutsche Bank.
But you can set up a virtual debit mastercard for free, please read https://www.deutsche-bank.de/pk/konto-and-map/services/mobiles-pay.html
That’s a girocard, that’s not an Apple Pay.
