Scored 8.9 / 10 by VaultCue.

Who it suits

  • Businesses paying suppliers and staff abroad, since the account targets a business audience and holds 80 currencies at once
  • Euro companies that want staff and suppliers paid from a familiar account format rather than a foreign wire, since local details cover iban
  • Finance teams that need payouts to bank, card and wallet and help on email, phone and help centre when a payment needs tracing

Who should look elsewhere

  • Skrill users, whose monthly fee is €0, who do not need local account details under iban for paying suppliers
  • PayPal Colombia users, whose monthly fee is $0, who are not paying and receiving as a business across many currencies

Frequently asked questions

How much is the monthly fee?+

Monthly fees run €0 to €100, with the lower end of the range on the basic plans and the higher end adding services. ConnectPay runs a no monthly fee tier, so a simple business account can be free, and cross-border payments are charged at €25 on top.

What does it cost to convert currency?+

Conversion fees run 0.75% to 1.5%, and ConnectPay adds a rate markup of 0.75%. The multi-currency median runs at 0.3%, so this sits above the middle of the field. For a business paying in several currencies, that cost returns on every conversion, which makes it the number to weigh first.

Is my money protected?+

Who regulates ConnectPay?+

How many currencies can I hold, and are there local account details?+

The account supports 80 currencies, ranking 15 of 379 brands on that measure. Local details cover iban, so suppliers and staff in the euro area can be paid from a familiar account format instead of a foreign wire.

How fast do payments arrive?+

Most payments are credited within a day, SEPA Instant transfers land in seconds, and same day settlement applies to most SEPA payments. The account is digital only (digital only), so the flow runs through the app, with support on email, phone and help centre to trace a stalled payment.

What does a cross-border payment cost?+

A cross-border payment costs €25 on the Personal Tree and Personal Forest plans, and more on the Personal Jungle plan, charged for payments in and out. Conversion sits on top at 0.75% to 1.5%, so the cost of moving money abroad depends on how much you convert.

Who is the account for?+

The account targets a business audience rather than personal banking, holds 80 currencies and pays out to bank, card and wallet, with monthly fees running €0 to €100. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so help comes by phone, email and the help centre.
