How to

Exchange campaigns – cash instead of cards


You have a payment card and need more cash? Let’s swap! There are various ways to exchange credit from your payment card for cash:

Tandem shopping

You can accompany a person without a payment card to the supermarket and pay for their purchase with your payment card. The person without a payment card will then return the amount of their purchase to you in cash.

Two hands. One hand is holding a voucher chip card, the other a 50 euro bill. The hands are holding out the card and bill for exchange.

Voucher exchange

You can buy shopping vouchers in supermarkets using your payment card. These vouchers can then be exchanged for cash by people without a payment card.

This is how it works:

  1. Buy a €50 shopping voucher in a supermarket. Take the receipt with you.
ALDI south
EDEKA
LIDL
REWE
  1. Take the voucher and the receipt to an exchange location. You will then receive the value of the voucher in cash.
