What is Legal entity?

A legal entity is the company a brand belongs to. Your account contract runs with that company, so this is the name to check in an imprint or company register before you open anything. 1822direkt belongs to Gesellschaft der Frankfurter Sparkasse mbH, 2gether runs as BITCOINFORME, S.L. and A1 banking sits under Telekom Austria AG. A brand name and its legal entity can look nothing alike, which is why complaints and compensation claims go to the legal entity rather than the name on the app.
