Sofort Banking is a payment method made to allow you to accept bank transfers for your online store. Once a customer chooses this payment method, they will be redirected to a secure payment form where they select their country and bank, and then log in with their online banking details. They do not have to create any extra accounts. When the customer authorizes the transfer by entering a code they will receive from their bank, they will receive a confirmation of the transaction. The transaction is done instantly.
TIP: See the short Sofort Banking tutorial on YouTube.
