Serviscope

What Serviscope does

Serviscope AG is a German Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) company specializing in modular, end-to-end process outsourcing for banks, with its core market being the German cooperative banking group (Genossenschaftliche FinanzGruppe Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken). Founded in 2003 as F-Call AG and rebranded through a 2017 four-way merger that created the current Serviscope AG, the company operates eight locations across Germany (Karlsruhe HQ, Mannheim, Darmstadt, Troisdorf-Spich, Gladbeck, Schloß Holte-Stukenbrock, Rostock, Leipzig) and serves approximately 400 of Germany's ~800 cooperative banks, alongside selected private/direct banks and payment service providers. The 2025 merger with SDT Verwaltungs-GmbH created the largest omnichannel service provider for the cooperative banking sector, expanding headcount to roughly 800 employees.

Serviscope's service portfolio covers the full back-office production stack (garnishment/Pfändung, estate/Nachlass, data cleansing and control, digital banking support, payment terminal support, construction financing processing, securities post-trade controls, customer/market services) as well as sales-oriented offerings (24/7 omnichannel customer service center, sales support, campaign services). Operations are integrated directly into the Atruvia/agree21 banking platform with no media breaks, using RPA and AI-assisted services where standardized processes permit. The garnishment service is used by approximately 140 banks and is described as the only end-to-end P-account processing offering within the cooperative group. Many services are VAT-exempt (umsatzsteuerbefreit) for qualifying cooperative banks since January 2024.

Revenue is generated through multi-year managed-service contracts, priced by transaction volume and scope of services, with most banking customers paying on a recurring managed-services basis. Reported FY2025 revenue was €44 million, following +12.1% YoY growth in FY2024. Ownership is by 61 shareholders: Atruvia AG holds 50.3%, with 60 cooperative banks holding the remaining 49.7%, embedding Serviscope structurally inside the cooperative banking ecosystem and aligning its commercial incentives with its customer base.

• Datev eG: Large cooperative-owned IT and services provider in Germany serving tax advisors, lawyers, and increasingly banking-adjacent workflows. While not a direct bank BPO competitor, it operates a similar member-owned cooperative services model and competes for adjacent German financial-services outsourcing budgets.
