Otta's take
Theo Margolius
COO of Otta
Europes global digital banking market is growing rapidly, attributed to changing customer preferences, growing adoption of advanced technologies, and increasing digitalization across the fintech sector. Online banking is becoming one of the most popular payment methods in Europe due to easy-to-use and advanced features.
N26 is one of several start-ups in Europe seeking to challenge established banks with app-based checking accounts and little to no fees. Some of its biggest competitors include mobile banks such as Monzo, Starling and Revolut. Mostly recently valued at $9B, the company is well placed to further its mission of reinventing banking.
In a bid to distance itself from rivals, N26 is launching insurance products, accessible from the company’s mobile app and website. The first insurance product is a smartphone insurance plan for German customers. It is also working on private liability insurance, home insurance, life insurance, pet insurance and coverage for bikes, electronics and large purchases.
