A checking account with a bank card is an integral part of everybody’s life. You need a checking account to transfer money and a banking card to get cash or to pay for your shopping. But if customers have a low credit score, many banks deny them a checking account and card, which makes daily life harder than necessary.At NUMBER26, we’re interested in making better banking available to as many people as possible. Any time you join a bank you have to go through a standard credit score check. In case of a low credit score, NUMBER26 is offering you a solution and introducing a new account to accommodate new users in Germany who currently do not meet the minimum requirements. It’s called N26 Flex, and it’s available today, 11 July 2016.Note: this does not affect current users.With N26 Flex, you can still enjoy the many advantages of banking with NUMBER26:
