To have your paycheck transferred directly to your new N26 salary account, all you need to do is share your account’s IBAN with your company’s HR team. In some companies, you can update your account details yourself through their intranet.
When you make N26 your salary account, you’ll get the same top features offered with our N26 Smart premium account—including a debit Mastercard in one of 5 colors, and smart tools that help you manage your finances efficiently. Track your spending in real-time and stick to your budget with Statistics.

And there’s more—you’ll get 5 free ATM withdrawals, fee-free payments in all currencies, and exclusive partner offers just for you. For more details, please see the Terms and Conditions.
In addition to depositing your salary—or a transfer of over €500 per month—into your N26 salary account, you must make at least one transaction with the N26 debit Mastercard debit card linked to that account.
You can get €5 per month for a maximum of 12 months if you comply with the conditions.
If a month passes without you depositing your salary or €500 or more into your account, you won’t receive your €5 reward for that month. However, you can receive the reward the following month or any future months within the year as long as you fulfill the transfer requirements.
Requesting your account switch only takes 10 minutes. Once you’ve submitted your request, it will take 5-7 business days to contact all your payment partners. However, you may need to factor in additional time to process certain changes for future payments.
