Payment card for refugees: FDP calls on the Greens to give in. Some states have already introduced payment cards for refugees.
FDP says there is no need for federal regulation of such a payment card. The Greens point out that the introduction of the card has already begun in Hamburg and is in the process of being finalized. The card is intended, among other things, to prevent migrants from giving money to smugglers or family and friends abroad. It is not clear if the card will be available in all German states.
