I compared all the options in Germany before opting for a pension plan. While the requirements might be different for everyone, I found Pensionfriend to be an extremely good offer. So if you want to have a pension that lets you control your portfolio and has the lowest overhead/administrative costs, Pensionfriend is your friend (pun intended)

I had a nice experience with Marvin who was very informative and professional and clarified all of my questions. It was so simple to start my pension with them and love the dashboard where one can see how your pension grows overtime. Great product!

I am probably one of the few people who actually went to their office in Berlin (from Munich) and had meeting. Office is not the most beautiful place in the world but that proves how they save money and to decrease unnecessary cost. Made account recently and it is working good so far. Dimple is very reliable, flexible, and kind and app is easy to see. So far so good ! If you have a money just sitting in the bank, recommend to start this.
