S-pushTAN - sichere Freigaben

Star Finanz GmbH

About this app

Play it safe: With the S-pushTAN app, you get your Sparkasse's convenient and secure authorization process on your phone or tablet. Use pushTAN for an advanced, mobile security process when banking online.

IT'S VERY EASY
• When banking online on your smartphone, tablet, or computer, you place and submit your orders there.
• The S-pushTAN app always shows you the order details. You check the data and approve the order easily and simply – that's it.
• Can be used for all orders that require a TAN or authorization: transfers, submitting or changing standing orders, securities and service orders, and much more.

GET STARTED AFTER ACTIVATION BY YOUR SAVINGS BANK
You can start using the S-pushTAN app once you are registered for the pushTAN process and have received your personal registration letter:
1 - Apply for the pushTAN process at your savings bank or switch from your current process to the pushTAN process online at your savings bank's online branch.
2 - Download the S-pushTAN app for free to your smartphone or tablet.
3 - Start setting up the S-pushTAN app as soon as you receive the registration letter from your savings bank.

SECURITY
• The S-pushTAN app communicates encrypted via tested interfaces. It ensures secure data transfer in accordance with German online banking regulations.
• Access to S-pushTAN is protected by a password of your choice and, optionally, by fingerprint or facial recognition.
• The app automatically locks after a short period of time. This ensures maximum security for your data, even if you lose your smartphone or tablet.

NOTES
• To use pushTAN, you need activation from your Sparkasse and a registration letter for initial setup.
• To use the latest version of the app, you need at least Android 6 on your smartphone or tablet.
• If your smartphone or tablet is rooted or is using a beta version of the operating system, S-pushTAN will not run on it. The important high security standards for the mobile banking we offer cannot be guaranteed on compromised devices.
• Please do not deny any of the requested permissions for S-pushTAN during setup, as these are necessary for the app to function properly.
• The app is free of charge, but its use may incur charges. Please refer to the information provided by your Sparkasse for further information.

Ratings and reviews

The real struggle with this app is all the passwords and IDs they require you to keep track of. There are at least 5 different such strings that you need for this app to work, which from a design perspective does not make any sense. More passwords don't make this service any more secure and just clutter up my password manager. Don't get me wrong though. 2fa is great, there's just better ways to implement it.

Can't do any transactions since the app thinks Android 16 with the newest security patch isn't safe enough on the Pixel 9 Pro XL. And the App constantly keeps crashing or redirecting me to a site which tells me my device wouldn't be safe enough.

I have no idea why but the app now has biometrics as requirement. I have been using the app on my old phone since the set-up on a new one doesn't seem to work. I do not want to use my biometrics or face ID! Whats more, the app on the old phone doesn't even have that option and now I don't have access to my online banking...my banks office hours are also a joke if you work...
