About Sparkasse Oberlausitz-Niederschlesien

Sparkasse Oberlausitz-Niederschlesien is a public-law savings bank serving the Upper Lusatia–Lower Silesia area of Saxony, primarily within the district of Görlitz. It is part of the Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe and covered by the group’s institutional protection scheme, and participates in the nationwide Sparkassen network for services and ATMs, allowing access to cash at thousands of machines, subject to account terms. The bank offers retail products such as current accounts with tiered pricing, youth and student accounts, savings and time deposits, securities brokerage and investment funds via group partners, building society savings and home financing, consumer loans, and insurance distributed through the Sparkassen network; for businesses and the public sector it provides accounts, payments, cash management, lending and guarantees, POS and e-commerce acquiring via group partners, and equipment and asset finance through Deutsche Leasing. Payment capabilities include SEPA transfers and direct debits, international transfers via SWIFT with fees, and support for real-time SEPA credit transfers where available; cards include girocard and Mastercard/Visa debit or credit, with contactless payments and compatibility with mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay. Digital banking is available via web and mobile with two-factor authentication (chipTAN or pushTAN), electronic statements, card controls, and secure messaging; account opening can be done in branch or online using video or postal identification, and a legally mandated basic payment account is available. Fees typically apply for account packages, paper statements, manual counter services, and withdrawals at non-network ATMs; cash services at own branches and machines, including deposits and coin handling, depend on local availability. The institution operates a regional branch and self-service network, focuses on retail, SME, and municipal clients in its defined market area, uses German IBANs for euro accounts, offers standard customer service channels (branch, phone, online banking messaging), and supports emergency card blocking via the central 116 116 hotline.
