What each one is, and who can open one
Incard
Incard Ltd is authorised by the FCA as an electronic money institution (firm reference number 1027309). It is not a bank. Safeguarded: Incard keeps customer funds separate from its own money, in accounts with authorised credit institutions, and doesn't lend or invest them. Funds are not protected by the FSCS.
Who can open one: UK limited companies and LLPs, UK sole traders and freelancers registered with their local authority, and Swiss GmbH, AG and sole-trader businesses. EEA onboarding is paused until an expected restart in 2027. Public sector bodies, cooperatives, charities, foundations and trusts aren't accepted, and a long list of industries is restricted.

Deposits are protected up to CHF 100,000 per customer and bank by Swiss depositor protection, run by esisuisse. Corporate customers are covered.
Who can open one: Companies with their registered seat in Switzerland. The bank publishes opening checklists for GmbH and AG and for sole proprietorships (Einzelunternehmen). Businesses in some sectors, such as gambling, car dealing, crypto, precious metals, commodities or weapons, are asked to phone the bank instead of applying by form. Full Migros Bank profile.
