1.1 Object of the Business Relationship, applicability of the N26 Bank GmbH
Terms and Conditions
The object of the business relationship with N26 Bank GmbH (“N26”) are services in line with a N26 Space
between you and N26.
Provided that no other agreements were made, the General Terms and Conditions of the ‘’N26 current account’’,
according to which you opened up your “N26 Main Account”, at N26 as well as the Additional Terms for Usage of
the application of the mobile App named “N26-App” apply for the opening and usage of “N26 Spaces”.
In case an IBAN is added to the Space in accordance with Section 3 below, the following additional Terms and
Conditions shall apply accordingly: Terms & Conditions for Credit Transfers, Terms & Conditions for Payments by
Direct Debit under the SEPA Core Direct Debit Scheme, Terms & Conditions „N26 Mastercard“ from N26 Bank GmbH
for Private and Business Mastercard Debit Cards, Terms & Conditions eBanking, Special conditions for digital account
statements and Special terms and conditions for the use of function 3D Secure.
● The availability of the Space(s) feature and the number of Spaces you can open at the same time vary
depending on your N26 subscription.
● By opening a Space in the Mobile App or Web App you enter into a payment service agreement
(Zahlungsdiensterahmenvertrag) according to Section 675 f German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch,
BGB).
● Each Space can be closed by you (and therefore the contract can be terminated) with a simple click. A
formal declaration of termination of the payment service agreement (Zahlungsdiensterahmenvertrag) is
not necessary.
Important: please note that the N26 Main Account will not be terminated by closing a Space.
● You can personalise your Space by choosing a name and a picture.
● You can authorise transfers between your N26 Main Account and a Space and between two Spaces by
‘drag and drop’.
● As for your N26 Main Account - N26 is not paying any interest for the balance on your Space.
● We will provide you with separate balance statements for each Space.
● You can use standing orders ("Rules") to specify that on a regular basis (daily, weekly, bi-weekly or
monthly) a certain amount of money to be determined by you is transferred from your N26 Main
Account to a Space or from one Space to another Space. In total, you can set up up to ten (10) Rules at
a time.
● As a Premium Member you will be able to assign an IBAN to your space and - within the framework of
Section 3 of these Terms and Conditions - enable the space for payment transactions.
b) Which services do you not get from N26 when opening a Space?
● Unless you assign an IBAN to your Space in accordance with Section 3 of these Terms and Conditions,
any other payment and banking functions are only available on your N26 Main Account, such as e.g.
transfer to an account of a third party, any payment functions which require an IBAN, overdraft for
Spaces, Mastercard and Maestrocard etc
● The permitted overdraft is currently only available on the N26 Main Account. Because each Space is a
separate bank account we only take into account the balance on your N26 Main Account when we
calculate your permitted overdraft amount as well the interest that has to be paid on the amount
utilised. Keep in mind that this means that you can go into overdraft and accrue interest fees at the
same time that there are positive funds in one or several other Spaces. (You can view the accrued
interest at any time via the account settings in your N26 App. At the end of every quarter, we send you
a corresponding invoice by email.)
2. Costs
The Space(s) service is free of charge and reserved for Premium Members.
3. IBAN Functionality
3.1 Eligible Persons
Only Premium Members are eligible for assigning an IBAN to a space.
N26 reserves the right to refuse to enable this feature for certain customers at its sole equitable discretion.
● As recipient of a payment you will be able to receive payment transactions via SEPA-Direct-Debit and
SWIFT.
● As Payer you can authorize the recipient of a payment via direct debit authorization to fulfill a direct
debit.
The following functions will be integrated gradually for all Premium Members. N26 will inform every eligible
customer as soon as the respective functions are available. N26 Customers do not have a legal claim to enforce
the integration of new functionality; it is at the sole discretion of N26:
3.5 P-Accounts
Spaces cannot be used as P-Accounts. Only the N26 Main Account may be used as a P-Account.
4. Data Protection
N26 shall respect the applicable provisions for data protection. N26 is entitled to process and use the
customer’s personal data, obtained by N26 in the context of the business relationship with the customer, for
the performance of the contract. For detailed information we refer to our N26 privacy policy.
If you decide to close a Space with an active IBAN (as described in Sec. 3 of these Terms and Conditions), please
be aware that your IBAN will be deleted permanently and your maximum number of possible IBANs will be
reduced accordingly. Any incoming and / or outgoing payments to and from the respective IBAN will be
rejected / not executed by N26. The same applies after your free trial period ends, all incoming and outgoing
payments to and from the respective IBAN will be rejected / not executed by N26.
If you are a Premium Member and decide to terminate your Premium Membership (to switch back to our
standard offer or to another Premium Membership), please note that this may impact the number of Spaces
you can open up at the same time (see Section 1.1 a) and 2 above). Once your Premium Account closure
becomes effective (meaning once the term of your premium account expires after we received your
termination declaration), you will have access to the number of Spaces available in your new N26 membership
(the number of Spaces available in our offers is indicated on our website as well as in the terms and conditions
of our memberships). In case your new membership does not grant you access to Spaces or does grant you
access to a number of Spaces that is inferior to the number of Spaces you had access to with your Premium
Membership, the closure of the latter will have as an effect the closure of the number of Spaces that are not
available in your new offer (we will close the last Spaces you opened and keep open the first Spaces you
opened). The balance on the closed Spaces will be transferred back to your N26 Main Account.
6. Garnishments
In case N26 receives a garnishment on your account, your active Spaces will be seized, meaning they will be in a
‘read-only’ mode so you cannot transfer your money back to the N26 Main Account. You will not be able to
open up additional Spaces or make changes to your existing Spaces. If the balance on your N26 Main Account is
not sufficient to satisfy your creditor’s claims, N26 will transfer the amounts on your Spaces back to your N26
Main Account to ensure the claims are met.

Section 3
Consequences of Revocation
In the event of an effective revocation, the services received by both parties shall be reimbursed.
If you should overdraw your account without having been granted overdraft facilities or if you should
exceed the overdraft facilities granted, we shall not claim any costs or interest from you beyond the
demand that you repay the overdrawn or excessively overdrawn amount, if we have not properly informed
you about the terms and consequences of an overdraft in the absence of - or in excess of - granted
overdraft facilities (such as the applicable debit interest rate and costs).
You are required to pay compensation for the value of services provided up to the time of revocation, if
you were made aware of this legal consequence before submitting your contract declaration and expressly
agreed that performance of services may commence before the end of the revocation period. If there is a
requirement to pay compensation for lost value, this may imply that you are still required to fulfill the
contractual payment obligations for the period up to the revocation. Your right of revocation expires
prematurely if the contract was completely performed by both parties at your express request before
you exercised your right of revocation. Payments must be refunded within 30 days. This term begins for
you with the dispatch of your notice of revocation; for us it begins with the receipt thereof.
Special Instructions
Upon revocation of this contract, you are also released from any contract related to this contract
(zusammenhängender Vertrag), if the related contract pertains to a service provided by us or by a third party
on the basis of an agreement between us and such third party.
