How the bank onboarding support works
- Kickoff call (15–30 min): your activity, expected turnover, countries, and typical counterparties.
- Bank-ready document pack: we prepare the checklist and help you present information consistently.
- Options review: we discuss realistic bank/fintech pathways based on your profile.
- Submission & follow-ups: we guide responses to bank requests (KYC/AML questions).
- Account activation: once approved, you complete the final steps directly with the bank.

FAQ
Do you guarantee bank account approval?
No. Bank approval is always at the bank’s discretion. We provide guidance to improve clarity and readiness.
How long does it take?
It depends on the bank, your activity, counterparties, and document readiness. We set expectations upfront and help reduce avoidable delays.
Can I open an account without a residence visa?
Sometimes, depending on the provider and profile. Many cases are smoother with a residence visa. We’ll guide you to realistic options.
Do you handle everything with the bank?
You remain the applicant. We guide the process and help you respond to requests, but the final onboarding is between you and the bank.
What if the bank asks more questions?
That’s normal. We help you answer clearly and consistently.
Where should I start?
If you don’t have a license yet, start with a Free Zone setup first.
