Rubean AG, a Munich-based fintech company specializing in software-only point-of-sale (SoftPOS) solutions, announced today that its payment acceptance app is now running on over 150,000 active terminals. This marks a significant milestone for the company, as the number of terminals has nearly doubled compared to early July 2025, when the figure stood at approximately 80,000.
“The significant increase in user numbers underscores our recently published forecast regarding the Rubean Group’s revenue and earnings performance,” said Rubean Co-CEO Jochen Pielage. The company's Executive Board projected consolidated revenue for the current year to reach between 5.0 million and 6.0 million euros, up from 3.71 million euros in the previous year. Recurring revenue is expected to more than double in 2026, driven by the continued growth in app usage.
Co-CEO Stephan Kuck emphasized the financial trajectory: “Thanks to the continued significant growth in the use of our SoftPOS app, we will reach monthly breakeven in 2027 and close the entire year with a positive net income for the first time.”
Rubean's technology replaces traditional card readers with a software app, allowing retailers to accept payments directly on smartphones without additional hardware. This solution is already a market leader in Germany and Spain, serving small and large retailers, the food service industry, delivery services, and other commercial enterprises.
The company's SoftPOS solution, PhonePOS, is used by payment service providers, major banks, retailers, and large retail chains across Europe. It is the only SoftPOS solution that supports the girocard (EC card) in Germany. Rubean is listed on m:access and various over-the-counter trading venues, including XETRA.
