About VR Bank Main-Kinzig-Büdingen eG

VR Bank Main-Kinzig-Büdingen eG is a regional cooperative bank headquartered in Hesse, serving the Main-Kinzig district and the Büdingen area with branch-based and digital banking under the Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken FinanzGruppe. As a Genossenschaftsbank, it is owned by member-customers who can subscribe cooperative shares; any dividend on shares is subject to annual results and shareholder approval. The bank provides retail and business products including giro accounts with tiered pricing models, savings and term deposits, consumer loans, mortgages and construction finance, SME lending and liquidity solutions, payment services, and real estate brokerage. Securities investing and custody are offered in collaboration with group partners (e.g., Union Investment for funds), while building society savings contracts are brokered via Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall and insurance via R+V Versicherung; credit cards (usually Mastercard or Visa) and other capital markets services are delivered through network institutions such as DZ BANK. Digital access is available through online banking and the VR Banking App operated on Atruvia’s platform, with strong customer authentication, an electronic mailbox, and standard SEPA transfers and direct debits; contactless card payments are supported, and mobile wallet availability depends on card type and issuer settings. Cash services include deposits and withdrawals at the bank’s own machines and fee-free withdrawals within the BankCard ServiceNetz, with charges possible at external ATMs; branch availability and opening hours vary by location, with advisory appointments typically bookable. The bank’s corporate focus is on private clients, self-employed professionals, SMEs, and agricultural businesses in its region, offering cash management, POS and e-commerce acquiring via partners, and basic cross-border payments routed through the cooperative network. Accounts generally require standard identification and German residence for onboarding; product conditions, interest rates, and fees are published in the price and service schedule and may change. VR Bank Main-Kinzig-Büdingen eG is supervised by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank, audited within the cooperative association, and participates in the BVR Institutssicherung (the statutory deposit guarantee scheme for Germany’s cooperative banks) which protects eligible deposits up to 100,000 euros per depositor per institution; an additional protection scheme of the BVR exists to stabilize member institutions but does not confer a legal compensation claim for depositors.
