Rubean AG, a Munich-based fintech company specializing in software-based point-of-sale solutions, has announced the appointment of Stephan Kuck as Co-CEO, effective July 1, 2026. Kuck, formerly CEO of Computop Paygate GmbH, will lead the company alongside existing CEO Jochen Pielage, with a focus on sales and revenue growth.
The new leadership duo aims to capitalize on Rubean's significant market opportunities. Pielage expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, "I’m looking forward to working together and, above all, to Rubean now being able to better capitalize on its enormous opportunities in the market." Kuck, who has a longstanding relationship with Rubean from his previous role, added, "I know the company very well from the long-standing collaboration between Computop and Rubean, and I’m looking forward to further expanding the already significant growth."
Rubean replaces traditional card readers with a software app known as SoftPOS, enabling retailers, food service providers, delivery services, and other commercial enterprises to accept cashless and mobile payments without additional hardware. The company is already a market leader in Germany and Spain, and has successfully entered markets in Switzerland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and North and South America with the support of major banks and payment service providers.
As part of the transition, former Chief Sales Officer Dr. Hermann Geupel will remain with the company as Sales Director for the DACH region. Rubean plans to further expand its sales operations and strengthen existing partnerships with financial institutions. To finance these efforts, the company is considering capital measures.
Rubean AG is listed on m:access and over-the-counter trading venues, including XETRA. More information is available at www.rubean.com. The original press release can be viewed at www.newmediawire.com.
