A closer look at individual accounts

There is no minimum funding requirement when opening an account.

If you want to qualify for a higher account tier (lower prices and better service), you can do so with a minimum funding of a certain value.

Learn more about account tiers

That depends on the account type you open.

For an individual account, these are the documents you’ll need to provide:

  1. Your national ID number from the country where you hold citizenship.
  2. Your tax ID number from your country of residence.
  3. A document as proof of identity (e.g., a passport, ID card, driver’s licence) and a selfie.
  4. A document as proof of residence (one that shows your home address, such as a residence permit, utility bill, or bank statement).

Most sign-ups for individual accounts are approved digitally within a few minutes. However, since we cannot compromise on security checks, the process can sometimes take longer. If all documents you provided meet requirements, we’ll process your application within 2 working days.

If you provide clear copies of all required documents, corporate accounts will generally be approved in about 1 week.
