In Germany itβs generally 1β¬ per transaction π€‘
Nope. It's not. My Sparkasse charges nothing
Thatβs rather the exception than the norm. All my banks charge 1β¬. All Sparkassen I researched you pay at least something:

There it is 0.75β¬
Here it is of my Sparkasse, 0β¬
Donβt doubt that but as I said, this is the exception rather than the norm.
That's a shame
Sparda Bank Berlin also allow free real-time transactions.
Sparda Bank Hamburg however does not.
This is so weird.
This is the least weird aspect about the Sparkassen system. They served their purpose but are being obsolete these days.
Sparda Bank β Sparkasse
True, of course. But the Volksbanken are similar to the Sparkassen when it comes to confusing customers.
