During the Blocked Account activation, we automatically open a Expatrio Bank Account* for you, where you can receive your monthly payouts. This account is opened for free, and you can access it from your Expatrio App!

This is a SEPA (Single European Payment Area) account. To learn more about SEPA, you can read this article. 

Therefore you do not need to open another German bank account.
