BremenPay

During the first campaign period in May 2026, BremenPay highlighted and rewarded commitment to making the city a better place to live. BremenPay did not introduce a new currency, but rather returned to an old idea: fair exchange. Good deeds became the currency for a wide range of benefits and experiences in Bremen.

1. Do good.
It all starts with a good deed. For example, cycling, arrival by train or extend your stay in Bremen.

2. Provide a simple proof
All it takes is a small piece of evidence to prove the good deed. For example, a photo, a train ticket, or similar documentation.*

3. Exchange for a little thank-you
The proof of purchase can be exchanged for a thank-you gift at the participating partners' locations.*

All promotions, thank-you gifts, and exchange offers from the promotional period (May 2026) at a glance.

BremenPay thrives thanks to its participating partners. They develop their own exchange offers, give out rewards, and bring the concept of fair exchange to life in the community. This turns the campaign into a collaborative project for Bremen.
