Identification and Qualifying Requirements

To be eligible for a cardonemoney Business Account, you must be at least 18 and have a residential address in the UK. Your business must be a business registered in the UK. Unfortunately, we do not accept businesses with a PO Box or Mailbox address and by law, we must check your identity and perform relevant checks on your business. We will do so by searching your record at identity authentication companies and fraud prevention agencies. The agencies will keep a record of our search.

Sometimes we are unable to verify your details automatically and may require further information from yourself. If we do, we'll contact you by Email, SMS and phone.
