Michael Reinartz, Director Innovation at Vodafone, said: 'We're pleased to work with two leading fintechs in Tink and Adyen to offer this new payment method for some of our customers in Germany. The simplicity and security of Pay by Bank provides a great option.'
The Pay by Bank payment method is facilitated by the long-standing partnership between Tink, a market-leader open banking platform, and Adyen, who provide end-to-end payments capabilities, data-driven insights, and financial products in a single global solution.
Thomas Gmelch, Head of Commercial Central Europe at Tink, said: 'Ever since our first discussions with Vodafone at an event in Dusseldorf, we've been excited at the potential of this partnership and look forward to working with them alongside our long-time partner Adyen.'
Hella Fuhrmann, Country Manager DACH at Adyen, added: 'We are delighted to introduce Pay by Bank for Vodafone customers thanks to our partnership with Tink - enabling payments directly from the bank account. We are seeing a growing need for this convenient payment method.

Upgraded Glastonbury app offers live location sharing and steps counter
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info An upgraded official Glastonbury app includes live location sharing and a steps counter for the first time as revellers finalise plans for their arrival at the 900-acre site. Building on last year's revamp, Vodafone's 2025 edition focuses on "keeping friends and family connected" as they join around 210,000 others at the world-famous festival from June 25, the telecoms firm said. The app now offers live location sharing on the Glastonbury map, in a bid to make it easier for festival-goers to find their friends across the site. Step count tracking has been added to the My Highlights post-festival wrap, so attendees can reflect on the ground covered over the five days. In other key updates, the Shared Line-ups feature will now automatically update, helping festival-goers spot who their friends are seeing and allowing them to plan their day accordingly. A map search feature is also designed to make it easier to navigate Worthy Farm and find different cuisines, locate camping and merchandise stands or discover new stages. It also reprises some 2024 features, including personalised recommendations on artists performing at the festival based on listening habits through Spotify, the ability to share line-ups with friends, map pinning to help users find everything from their tent to a favourite food stall and automatic highlighting when artists overlap to help navigate the schedule. In 2024, the app saw 226,215 total downloads, 88.9% from festival-goers attending Worthy Farm and 11.1% from viewers at home. The app is free for iOS and Android. Maria Koutsoudakis, chief brand officer at Vodafone UK, said: "We know the app plays a big role in the festival experience so, this year, we have gone even further to ensure that fans can connect with their friends or family and get as much out of Glastonbury as possible. "Combined with us delivering the most Vodafone network capacity ever on-site, these new features will help festival-goers always be connected, no matter where they are across the site. "We're delighted to be able to use these features to reward both fans and communities across the UK, by tying the new step count feature to our campaign. Social impact is a key part of Glastonbury's ethos as a festival, and we're proud to be able to play our part in that." Vodafone's Connect & Charge tent will also offer free phone charging and WiFi on site.
