## What is S?

Get on the safe side: With the S-pushTAN app, you can get the practical and secure approval procedure of your Sparkasse on your iPhone or iPad. When banking online, use pushTAN, an advanced, mobile security procedure.

IT'S THAT EASY
• When banking online with iPhone, iPad or computer, place your payment orders and send them.
• The S-pushTAN app always shows the details of the order. Just check the order data and release the order by swiping.
• Usable for all orders with TAN release. Whether transfers, submitting or changing standing orders, securitie or service orders and much more.

LET'S GO AFTER ACTIVATION BY YOUR SPARKASSE
You can start with the S-pushTAN app if you are registered for the pushTAN procedure and have got your personal registration letter.

1 - Apply for the pushTAN procedure or switch from your previously used procedure at the online branch of your Sparkasse.
2 - Download the S-pushTAN app to your iPhone or iPad for free.
3 - As soon as you have received the registration letter from your Sparkasse, start setting up the S-pushTAN app. 

SAFETY
• The S-pushTAN app communicates exclusively encrypted via tested interfaces and ensures secure data transfer according to German online banking requirements.
• Access to S-pushTAN is protected by a password you have chosen and optionally by Touch ID or Face ID.
• The app automatically locks after a short period of time, which means that your data is secured as much as possible even if the iPhone or iPad gets lost.
• The German TÜV confirms these highest safety standards.

WORTH TO KNOW
• In order to be able to use pushTAN, you need an activation by your Sparkasse and a registration letter for the first setup.
• In order to use the current version of the app, you need iOS from version 15.7 on your iPhone or iPad.
• If your iPhone or iPad is jailbroken, S-pushTAN is not executable on it. The important high security standards for the mobile banking we offer cannot be guaranteed on manipulated devices.
• Please do not deny S-pushTAN any of the requested permissions when setting it up, as these are necessary for the smooth functioning of the app.
• You get the app for free, but its use can cause costs. Please note the given information of your Sparkasse.

### 1/5 — Insulting

*2026-06-22*

This app makes banking with Sparkasse unpleasant and they will cancel your password at random leaving bills unpaid and your account inaccessible, at the times when you need it most. Not recommended for overseas people, travelers or anyone really.

**Developer response:** That is, of course, not the impression we want to leave. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback nonetheless.

### 1/5 — Antiquated tech

*2026-05-13*

Truly dysfunctional. Nothing works. Unreliable. Functions dead-end. This needs to be retired. Only downloaded it because my bank insists on it.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the app has caused so much frustration and did not work reliably for you. We understand how disappointing that is, especially when the app is required for everyday banking. Feedback like yours helps us identify where improvements are most urgently needed, and we are continuously working on stability and usability.

### 1/5 — Simply Awful

*2026-04-09*

This app is so annoying, as is the Sparkasse app. And the latest update is broken and my money is trapped. Cannot do anything. Infuriating.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you very much for your candid feedback. It’s more than frustrating that you had to reconfigure your existing connections. With your help, we’ve identified and resolved the issue. The update is ready and will be rolled out shortly.

### 1/5 — Bruh

*2025-11-11, version 5.0.0*

Worst banking app I’ve seen.

### 1/5 — Kommunikationsfehler

*2025-10-11, version 5.0.0*

Ständig wird die Meldung „Ein Kommunikationsfehler ist aufgetreten“ (10002) angezeigt. Leider reagiert niemand auf Online-Supportanfragen.

### 2/5 — PushTAN

*2025-10-03, version 5.0.0*

Es nervt, dass ich nach jedem Absetzen einer pushTAN mein iPhone aus- und einschalten muss um eine neue Push-TAN anzufordern

### 1/5 — Idiocy

*2025-09-18*

Hey dingalings — you can delete my reviews all you want but here’s a suggestion — instead of wasting everyone’s time with that nonsense why don’t you hire someone who can actually build an app that works? Why are you all stuck in the past ? What’s wrong with you? This app is TRASH. Have some standards.

### 1/5 — Crush

*2025-08-01, version 4.8.2*

Always crushing. And endless errors. Tried to login with new phone and it’s crushing all the time. Can’t make payments!!!

### 1/5 — Schreckliche Bank und lügende Mitarbeiter

*2025-07-26, version 4.8.2*

Ich habe 430 Euro in einen Geldautomaten gesteckt. Aber das Geld blieb im Automaten. Da es mein letztes Geld war, rannte ich weinend zur Sparkassenfiliale und fragte, was zu tun sei. Die Sparkassenmitarbeiterin sagte, sie hätte das Problem notiert und eine Beschwerde eingereicht und sagte außerdem, dass ich ein bis zwei Wochen warten müsse. Ich wartete, aber leider kam das Geld nie an. Also ging ich erneut in die Filiale und sprach die Sparkassenmitarbeiterin an, und sie antwortete, dass es keine Beschwerde gäbe. Die Mitarbeiterin, zu der ich das erste Mal gekommen war, hatte mich betrogen! Die zweite Mitarbeiterin beschwerte sich, aber auch nach zwei Wochen war das Geld nicht angekommen. Ich wünsche niemandem diese Bank, diese lügnerischen Mitarbeiter und Betrüger. Wegen dieses Vorfalls habe ich mir Geld geliehen, um mit meinem Kind etwas zum Leben zu haben. Es ist sehr gemein und niederträchtig, Kunden so zu behandeln.

### 5/5 — Die 4.8.2 behebt das Problem seit der 4.8.0

*2025-07-12, version 4.8.2*

Die 4.8.2 hat das Problem, das bei mir seit der 4.8.0 mit dem sofortigen Absturz beim Start behoben.
