Plans you can build your business on

Qonto is not a bank but rather a payment institution supervised by the Banque de France (under the number CIB 16958). We enable companies (existing ones or those in the process of being registered) to benefit from a payment account and all the means of payment necessary for the smooth running of their business (physical and virtual cards, direct debits, international transfers, cheque deposits).

As a regulated payment institution, all our customers’ funds are secured. The funds deposited in your Qonto account are totally separate from Qonto’s treasury.

The funds are partly “segregated” in the books of Crédit Mutuel Arkéa. The other part is invested in qualified money market funds, the units of which are held in the books of Société Générale in accordance with our legal and regulatory obligations. This means that no one but you has access to your money. Neither Qonto nor anyone else can use or invest your company’s money.

For more information please refer to this article.

Whether your company is already registered or is in the process of being created, we have offers adapted to all to guide you through the different stages of your company's life.

Whether you are alone or in a team, Qonto provides you with all the payment methods you need to manage your business in real time. Qonto offers metal cards for professionals and allows the reception of SWIFT transfers (from abroad).

Much more than a current account, Qonto simplifies your daily life with a range of features that make it easier to keep an eye on everyone's expenses and prepare your daily accounting.

Since 2019, we have been using our own banking platform (also known as the Core Banking System), which allows us to carry out our clients' transactions ourselves. This independence allows us to offer a smoother experience to our clients and to directly create the products and services that make their day-to-day life easier.

Our mission is focused on the needs of professionals and their expectations. This is why our customer service is ultra responsive and attentive, with people ready to answer your questions as quickly as possible.

Qonto's pricing and offers are transparent. All monthly subscriptions come without commitments. You can switch from one plan to another at any time if your business needs to change.

500,000 business customers have already joined Qonto to simplify their day-to-day financial management - why not you?

Qonto is designed for all professionals and companies who wish to optimize their daily financial and accounting management.

The opening of a Qonto business current account is currently accessible to companies registered in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands, Belgium and Austria. 

There is no movement commission in addition to the cost of the subscription.

In other words, if you do not exceed the transaction volume and services included in your subscription, you will only be charged for the monthly rate of your subscription.

If you order additional cards or make additional transactions (over those included in your subscription), additional fees will be charged. Find all the details on the fees for additional cards and services here.

Transfers

Your Qonto account allows you to receive transfers from all over the world and send money in more than 32 foreign currencies via the SWIFT network. This feature is included in some of our plans. Discover all our plans and what they include from our Pricing page.

Payments by card

All of our Qonto cards accompany and insure you when you travel. If you are a frequent traveler, we advise you to order one of our Plus or X Cards.

With the Plus Card you benefit from a low, 1% exchange rate commission on card payments outside the Euro zone.

With the X Card, all your payments abroad are made at the real exchange rate (without any exchange commission) and your withdrawals are free of charge.

These two cards come with premium insurance to protect you and your teams when travelling.

SEPA Creditor Identifier creation

The SEPA Creditor Identifier (ICS) enables you to debit your customers' accounts via SEPA Direct Debit.

Confirmation letter

It is a regulatory document that companies may need annually in the event of an audit. Please note that Qonto will not charge you any additional fees for requesting a confirmation letter.

Management of irregularities

Qonto will charge you 10% of the amount requested by the seizing authority, up to a maximum of €100 excl. VAT.

An irregularity occurs when the tax administration or a creditor through a legal authority demands reimbursement of an unpaid debt. As a payment institution, we are required to take the steps to reimburse your debt: this is what we call a seizure of bank accounts.

As a Qonto customer, your subscription fees are collected directly from your Qonto account. You can choose to be billed on either a monthly basis or, alternatively, to pay upfront for a full year by choosing our annual payment option.

In cases where there are insufficient funds in your Qonto account to pay your Qonto subscription, Qonto has made the choice not to apply penalty fees on your overdue payments, as other institutions do. Instead, you will be notified of a "payment failure" and will be asked to top up your account so that your payment can be processed next.

An ‘Add-on’ is a package of additional features that you can add to your Qonto plan. These paid packages provide you with complementary tools to enhance your experience and allow you to tailor Qonto’s offer to your specific business needs.

If you pay for your Qonto plan on a monthly basis, the additional fees for an Add-on will also be billed monthly.

If you pay for your Qonto plan on an annual basis, you can choose to be billed for any Add-ons either monthly or annually.
