February 1, 202414 out of 16 federal states of Germany will create a unified payment card for refugees.
This is reported by the Bild publication.
Bavaria and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania plan to create their own model. In the other regions, the funding allocated to cards for refugees will no longer be uncontrolled.
- Bank transfers from such cards will be blocked. Previously, transfers of benefits from cards served as an incentive for people to come to Germany and receive social benefits.
- The card will only be valid in Germany.
- Only small cash amounts will be allowed to be withdrawn. Each region will set maximum limits.
- Online purchases in other EU countries will be restricted.
- The card can be cancelled at the request of authorities in case of misuse.
“The money allocated to refugees is intended to support them in Germany, but – with all understanding – not for financing families back in their home countries,” said Lower Saxony Prime Minister Stephan Weil.
