Nexi Implements Wero for eCommerce in Germany
BAUR, Quelle and Bünting among the first online merchants to connect; more to be announced in the coming weeks
Frankfurt, April 28, 2026 – The European PayTech, Nexi, has reached a significant milestone, integrating the digital payment method, Wero, into German eCommerce through its German subsidiary, Nexi Germany. In doing so, Nexi lays the foundation for connecting further online merchants to the new European payment system.
First online merchants preparing to launch
Parallel to the technical integration, the first well-known German online merchants have already signed up for the Wero connection. Among them are Bünting Group, with its online brands “Combi.de & MyTime.de”, as well as BAUR and Quelle, which are now preparing to offer Wero as a payment option to their customers. BAUR and Quelle – both online shops belonging to the BAUR-Gruppe – plan to integrate Wero into their “ComfortPay” service. Nexi will announce further online merchants connecting to Wero over the coming weeks.
The implementation of Wero for BAUR, Quelle and Bünting marks an important milestone for Nexi and for the development of a more sovereign and competitive European payments landscape. As a leading European PayTech, Nexi is committed to enabling payment solutions that expand choice for merchants and consumers while combining simplicity, speed and security. We are pleased to support the rollout of Wero through Nexi Germany’s eCommerce integration and through Computop, our group company, which acts as the technical service provider for Wero.
We are pleased to see Nexi is offering Wero as a payment method for their merchants in Germany. At the end of 2025 we announced Wero’s upcoming roll-out for online purchases, so this is an important next step in bringing a new account-to-account payment experience to a broader range of merchants and customers in the German market.
Wero is based on real-time, account-to-account transfers, and is designed to process payments faster, more cost-efficiently and in a sovereign European manner. Initially, the new payment method was introduced by its operating company, the European Payments Initiative (EPI), for person-to-person payments. Now it is being rolled out in eCommerce, with future plans to introduce Wero at the Point of Sale. The EPI is currently supported by 16 European banks and payment service providers, and Wero is now available in Belgium, France and Germany. Other European markets and partners will follow gradually.
The partners will work together to bring the new, combined model to the German banking market.
