ID requirements

Eligibility

To be eligible for a Card One Money Business Account or a Card One Money Corporate 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.

‍

The Card One Money Business Account and Card One Money Corporate Account are not available to businesses providing certain goods and services such as pornography, unlicensed prescription drug selling, narcotics, weapons, unlicensed gambling, or those goods and services which are prohibited by law. In addition, the account is not suitable for businesses who wish to pay in large volumes of cash and cheques.
