Our mission: to create the finance solution that energizes SMEs and freelancers
Alexandre Prot and Steve Anavi – Co-Founders @Qonto
Qonto was born out of frustration. As new entrepreneurs, Alexandre and Steve felt bogged down by their own banking experience. It was time-consuming. It was complex. It also lacked the modern tools that progressive companies need. So, they decided to create a banking product fit for the modern entrepreneur. One that when you use it, just seems to "click".
Our goal? To dust off the old banking experience and be the power pack for small businesses. We are driven by our desire to save our customers time. Time that they can reclaim for forging their own future. And that’s something we think is pretty valuable.

We’re working together to bring you an even more advanced all-in-one business finance solution to power up your business.
Business finance isn't always fun. But it can be done quicker. From opening an account to managing it day-to-day, we want our customers' experience to be the best out there.
So much more than just a business account, Qonto creates automated tools that help companies motor through their accounting and expenses.
Our pricing is fair and totally transparent. Our customer support is swift and thorough. Our goal is to sweat the small stuff so that entrepreneurs can focus their time and energy on what matters.
