About Kreissparkasse Waiblingen

Kreissparkasse Waiblingen is a public-law savings bank of the Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe serving the Rems-Murr district in Baden‑Württemberg, with a regional branch and ATM network and a focus on retail customers, local businesses, and municipalities. The product range covers current accounts with monthly fees that vary by package, overdraft facilities, savings products, term deposits, consumer and mortgage loans, and business accounts with payment services, POS solutions, and financing; securities custody and investment funds are offered via group partners such as DekaBank, and building society savings and home financing are available via LBS. Customers typically receive a giro account with a debit card (girocard) and can add credit cards (Visa/Mastercard); cash withdrawals are free at Sparkassen ATMs in Germany and chargeable at third‑party networks. Digital banking is provided through online banking and the Sparkassen app, with two‑factor authentication via pushTAN or chipTAN; Apple Pay and Google Pay are supported, and instant SEPA transfers are available, often with a fee. Insurance products are distributed through Sparkassen‑Verbund partners (e.g., SV SparkassenVersicherung), while leasing and other corporate services are available via group companies such as Deutsche Leasing. Deposits are secured by the institutional protection scheme of the Sparkassen‑Finanzgruppe, which is officially recognized as a deposit guarantee scheme in Germany; statutory coverage of up to 100,000 euros per depositor applies to eligible deposits, and the scheme also aims to prevent insolvency. Account opening is generally available in branch or online for residents with standard identification (e.g., VideoIdent/PostIdent); services and documentation are primarily in German, international features are limited to standard SEPA and cross‑border payments, and multicurrency accounts are not typical. Pricing applies to most account models and many add‑on services (e.g., cards, instant transfers, securities custody, third‑party ATM withdrawals, international transfers), and conditions depend on the chosen package and usage; advisory appointments can be booked online, and support is available via phone, secure messaging, and in branch during posted hours.
