Raiffeisen banks phase out CardTan, leaving Linux and GraphenOS users stuck

Original: Die Raiffeisenbanken stellen jetzt CardTan ein. Für Linux Desktops gibt es nach wie vor keine PushTan. Ein APK für Graph

Austrian Raiffeisen banks are discontinuing CardTan as an authentication method, while still offering no PushTan support for Linux desktops and no official app for GraphenOS. Critics point out this conflicts with EU guidance that security methods should not force users onto specific operating systems, arguing banks are effectively locking customers into Windows, macOS or stock Android for online banking access.

Why now: Users on Linux and privacy-focused Android systems are frustrated that retiring CardTan further narrows their banking options, in possible conflict with EU digital compatibility guidance.
