Why Banking Is Often the Hardest Part of Going Live

Securing a crypto, gambling or fintech license is only half the battle — many newly licensed companies discover mainstream banks decline their account application anyway, regardless of how clean their license is. Since 2008, correspondent banks have steadily "de-risked" away from entire sectors, often rejecting an applicant based on its industry code alone rather than reviewing its actual compliance program.

Licensium maintains an active network of banks, EMIs and payment institutions that already have risk appetite for crypto, gambling and fintech clients specifically, and we manage the entire introduction from EDD package preparation to the bank's own interviews.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my company get rejected by a bank even though we are fully licensed?

Many banks decline applicants based on industry code alone as part of a broad "de-risking" policy. A properly prepared Enhanced Due Diligence package addressed to a bank with risk appetite for your sector is the biggest factor in reversing this outcome.

What is the difference between a bank account and an EMI account?

A traditional bank account is provided by a licensed credit institution. An EMI account offers IBANs and payment execution without being a bank, and is often more accessible to higher-risk sectors.

Can you guarantee my account will be approved?

No institution can be guaranteed in advance. We prepare the strongest possible application and match you with institutions that already have demonstrated risk appetite for your sector.
