Söder launches payment card in Bavaria: only 50 euros in cash for refugees. The card is to be issued to asylum seekers aged 14 and over.
The payment card will be valid in shops in the district's postcode area. Online shopping, gambling and transfers abroad are not possible with the payment card. According to Söder, this is sufficient for lunch, but not for public transport or public transport for long-term use. It is a normal debit card in the Mastercard system and can therefore be used widely.
