Always had a positive experience with them; they are licensed as an EMI in the UK and Malta. Crypto and iGaming friendly.
Accounts are issued through Banking Circle so they have access to more unique clearing systems, e.g. BACS, Kronos2, better SWIFT processing.

Yes, parts of Wirecard were sold to recover more funds. Wirecard had an Austrian GmbH that was used for administering the tech development of payment gateways and integrations. This was sold to Qenta same as Wirecard NA was sold to Syncapay, Wirecard AU was...
My opinion is that this service is not particularly interesting or useful to us users here at OCT.
On the other hand, it is better if crypto-beginners/average Joes are partially-self-custodying with the Proton wallet and not holding their crypto at centralized exchanges ”“ well, to us it is...
FVBank should be a good choice for you, yes.
Also maybe try Euro Exchange, CBiBank, Currenxie.
Bancoli or Payset can potentially work but I'm not sure if they accept UAE for USD local accounts.
So what do they even support now? Lol.
They only had pooled SEPA through Pervesk and dedicated ACH details at Quaint Oak when I tried (but gave up on) opening an account. And some FFC pooled details for USD SWIFT, I guess.
As @daniels27 said, we should know more about your business activity...
At the moment, the OCIF bank list is not working, so I can't point you there. But you can check the bank's site as well: https://olibank.com/
I did not experience any issues except 1 transaction that got stuck (but hard to tell if that was really their fault, and it did get to the beneficiary...
Licensed bank in Puerto Rico. They make money by holding the USD pretty much only in short-term T-Bills, which is a better business model than most EMIs/comparable institutions can use.
Has been good and reliable when I used it.
The Trustpilot reviews are strange and you cannot really rely on...
So what did Sellix actually do that was a violation? Because I think it was just a crypto gateway and store platform similar to Sellpass, no custody of funds and not subject to usual financial KYC guidelines, since it was just the tech provider. Might have remembered incorrectly though.
Had an...
Also pretty funny that she is projecting in practically all of the 'critiques' of BTC:

LiquidHas no central authority, can be sold to whomever wants to purchase it with nobody to prevent the transaction. There will never be more than 21M.Centralised, printed limitlessly...
This would be best but as you said, that cannot be expected with a Trump administration
Regulate ==> buy high ==> sell low ”“ sounds pretty usual for EU
also blame somebody else for the project's failure after losing money, maybe Russia or China
Nevertheless, I am not very shocked by the...
Any new/other experiences with them?
Thinking about giving it a shot as I just found I had an account; I received their newsletter on one of my emails.
Their offering is pretty wide (staking, another IBAN - you can never have enough, and integrated exchange), and they have acquired Dzing, so...
Well, as I was told second-hand, the regulator has been mostly focused on transferring into MiCA, because there are dozens of companies with the virtual currency registration (even with the 125K min capital) that are not regulated enough, according to them; they were quite unhappy that by the...
Pretty much yes.
You would set up a fiscal unit of which the Maltese Ltd would be part and act as the fiscal representative.
A clearer description of the tax status is in this article.
In general, Malta is a good decision in my eyes. A nice place and a safe, trustworthy corporate structure...
Just note the fees are not appealing, correspondent accounts are only in EUR and primarily at Lithuanian EMIs, and the company belongs to Bankera.
None of these are complete deal-breakers but they are not too positive especially after the experiences seen on this forum.
Yes, I say the same.
To set up a nominee structure with the LLC does not seem particularly complex.
And as long as he does not appear too suspicious, it is not very likely to be discovered, especially when OP is not planning to make any distributions from the LLC.
But this is not a legal...
Vivid, Trastra, iCard, P100, Credits have crypto integrated directly and are crypto-friendly overall.
Revolut, Payz, other mass-market EMIs or neo-banks are also usually fine with it in smaller doses.
Most banks are crypto friendly if you are low risk.
But we would need to know:
- country(ies) of citizenship
- country(ies) of residency (and applicable tax status)
- legitimacy of crypto
- documentation of crypto
- range of amount
to make some kind of recommendation. An Eritrean living in...
Yes, US LLC does not work for this purpose.
If you own whatever opaque company, like say BVI Ltd. that has profits from 2004-2016, move to Slovakia, receive the dividend as a tax resident, you will not pay taxes on that. That's the only benefit of that exception.
You are also correct with the...
