N26 Closes It’s Doors to all United States Customers

Posted on November 21, 2021 by madebyjetpack

Less than 2.5 years after entering the United States market, German fintech N26 has announced it will be permanently discontinuing all US operations in January 2022.

N26 customers in the US must migrate

All US N26 customers have until Tuesday January 11, 2022 to withdraw their funds from the global digital bank, after which time they will no longer have access to N26, its mobile app, or their accounts.

N26 has assured its roughly 500,000 US customers that they will have full access to their funds as usual until the cutoff date, and that they will receive further instructions on how to withdraw their funds to ensure a smooth transition.

N26 on terminating their US market

In a press release on November 18, 2021 announcing the withdrawal, N26 expressed gratitude to all its US employees for their immense contributions to building the business in the US market, as well as it’s plan to focus on a “core” European business moving forward. N26 says they hope to apply what they learned from the two years in the US market to their plans for a new investing option for their European users, and to their expansion into the Eastern European Market.

This sudden end in America may not come as such a shock to some observant US N26 users. On top of their withdrawal from the UK market in 2020, in response to intense scrutiny from German financial regulators, N26 was ordered to limit the number of new customers they took on to 50,000 per month in early November of this year.
