Rewe Debuts Rewe Pay for In-Store Mobile Checkout

Rewe plans targeted customer outreach after launching a Girocard-based mobile payment feature secured by two-factor authentication.

Seit 1. Juli ist „Rewe Pay“ in der hauseigenen App verfügbar.

Overview

  • Rewe Pay went live nationwide on July 1 within the Rewe Bonus App, enabling smartphone payments at all stores in Germany.
  • Customers must complete a one-time activation at staffed or self-service checkouts by linking their Girocard and authorizing a direct-debit mandate.
  • All Rewe Pay transactions require two-factor authentication via Face ID, Touch ID or a device password to ensure payment security.
  • Rewe has not yet promoted the service on its social media channels but intends to roll out dedicated communications to inform shoppers.
  • The company reports satisfaction with the initial days of testing but cautions that it is too early to draw final conclusions on long-term adoption.
