PRICING FAQ

Quick price questions.

Why don't you publish standard prices on the site?

+−

Banking engagements vary enormously by case. The same jurisdiction can be a simple LLC opening, or a multi-shareholder holding structure with cross-border tax considerations — and the price reflects that complexity. Publishing one number would either overcharge simple cases or set unrealistic expectations for complex ones.

Every quote we send is fully itemised:

Engagement fee — our work
Government / regulator filings
KYC processing & document preparation
Expected timeline

You see the full breakdown before committing. No hidden surcharges later.

How quickly do I get a quote after my first message?

+−

Most quotes return within 24 hours of your first WhatsApp message.

Typical response times:

Standard jurisdictions (HK, SG, UK, US, UAE): 2–4 hours during business hours
Complex or multi-jurisdictional structures: up to 48 hours
High-risk industries (crypto, gaming, PSP): 24–72 hours while we coordinate with specialists

Our team covers London, Singapore, Dubai, and Hong Kong time zones — roughly 20 hours of business-hour coverage per day, in 7 languages.

Are bank account funding minimums included in the engagement fee?

+−

No. Bank funding minimums (the initial deposit each bank requires to activate the account) are paid directly to the bank — never to us. We disclose required minimums for each shortlisted bank during the Match phase, before you commit.

Typical ranges:

Digital / challenger banks: USD 0 – 1,000
Free-zone banks: USD 1,000 – 10,000
Tier-1 commercial banks: USD 5,000 – 25,000
Private banks: USD 250,000 – 5M (varies by tier)

The engagement fee covers our work. The funding stays in your bank account once opened.

When is payment due — before or after the account opens?

+−

Payment terms depend on the Lane you choose:

Standard Lane / Multi-Lane: 50% on engagement (after agreement signed and work begins), 50% on first account opening
Priority Lane: 100% on engagement, with the 60-day refund guarantee (see homepage FAQ for details)

Accepted payment methods: SEPA, SWIFT, USD wire, GBP wire, and most major fiat currencies. USDC and USDT accepted on Priority Lane only, against KYC-verified wallets.
