FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is this a real UK bank account?
You get a virtual GBP account with real UK payment details — a sort code and account number — built to receive Faster Payments and convert them to stablecoins. It is designed for receiving revenue, not as a full replacement for a bank account.
Do I need a UK company to open a GBP account?
No. KYB onboarding works for businesses worldwide — no UK entity, address, or residency required.
How does the auto-conversion to stablecoins work?
You set a conversion rule on your account. When a GBP payment settles, it converts automatically to USDC or USDT at transparent rates and lands in your wallet. You can also hold pounds and convert manually.
Which stablecoins can I receive?
Incoming GBP can convert to USDC or USDT on major networks — you choose the stablecoin and network in your account settings.
How fast can I start receiving pounds?
Onboarding takes days, not weeks. Once approved, your UK details are issued and you can share them with clients right away.
