About Volksbank Marl-Recklinghausen eG

Volksbank Marl-Recklinghausen eG is a regional German cooperative bank serving private customers and SMEs in the northern Ruhr area around Marl and Recklinghausen. As part of the Genossenschaftliche FinanzGruppe (Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken), it offers current accounts, savings, consumer and mortgage lending, business financing, payments, and securities services, with access to group partners such as Union Investment (funds), Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall (building savings and home finance), R+V Versicherung (insurance), and DZ BANK infrastructure for capital markets and cards. Accounts typically include SEPA transfers, girocard, and Visa/Mastercard options, with contactless and online payments supported; mobile wallets like Apple Pay or Google Pay may be available depending on card and eligibility. Customers can use the VR-Banking app and online banking, and transact at local branches and self-service terminals; cash withdrawals are possible at the nationwide BankCard ServiceNetz of Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken ATMs. Pricing follows the published Preis- und Leistungsverzeichnis, with common fee components such as account packages, card fees, and charges for certain transactions or paper statements; conditions and product availability vary by customer profile. As a cooperative, eligible customers may become members and subscribe cooperative shares; dividends on shares are not guaranteed and depend on the annual resolution. Deposits are covered by the German statutory deposit guarantee up to 100,000 EUR per depositor and the institutional protection schemes of the Cooperative Financial Network (BVR), which aim to prevent insolvency. The bank is subject to supervision by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank, applies PSD2 requirements for payment services, and publishes regulatory information and consumer disclosures on its website. Lending decisions are based on creditworthiness and legal requirements; rates and terms are set locally and can differ from other Volksbanken.
