A business bank account without the run-around

Opening a UK business account can be slow and frustrating, and overseas founders are frequently rejected by traditional banks. We take the friction out of it.

8+ partner banks

We work with a range of UK and digital business banking providers, so you are matched to one that actually accepts your profile.

Fast-tracked

Priority handling of your application means less back-and-forth and a quicker route to an active account.

Non-resident friendly

We know which providers work with non-UK resident directors, so you are not sent to a bank that will only reject you.

Multi-currency

Hold and move money in multiple currencies — useful if you invoice or pay suppliers internationally.

Matched to your needs

We suggest options based on your business type, residency and how you plan to move money.

Application guidance

We help you prepare the documents and details each provider asks for, so the application goes through cleanly.

The right bank, first time

Matched, prepared and fast-tracked — not sent to whoever rejects you.

Why non-UK residents get stuck

Most UK high-street banks expect a director to be UK-resident and to visit a branch in person. For an overseas founder that is often a dead end — applications are declined with no clear reason, and time is wasted on banks that were never going to say yes.

We already know which providers work with non-resident directors and remote onboarding. Matching you to the right one from the start is the whole point of this service.

  • Providers that support remote, non-resident onboarding
  • No wasted applications to banks that will decline you
  • Multi-currency options for international trading

What this service is — and is not

This is a setup and matching service: we find the right partner bank, prepare your application and fast-track it. It is a one-time fee paid to us for that work.

The account itself is opened with the bank, on the bank’s terms. Any ongoing account fees, card fees or balance requirements are set by the provider, not by us — we make sure you know them before you apply.

  • One-off setup and matching fee paid to Regilyze
  • The account is held with, and governed by, the bank
  • You see the provider’s own fees before you commit

Set up the rest of your company

Banking is smoother when the company basics are already in place.

Bank account setup questions

Do you guarantee I will be approved?

No service can guarantee a bank’s decision — the account is opened on the bank’s terms and they run their own checks. What we do is match you to the provider most likely to accept your profile and fast-track a clean application, which materially improves your chances.

Can non-UK residents open a UK business account through this?

Yes — this service exists largely for that reason. We work with providers that support non-resident directors and remote onboarding, rather than sending you to a branch you cannot visit.

Is the setup fee the same as the bank’s fees?

No. The setup fee is a one-off charge for our matching and application service. Any ongoing fees are set by the bank you choose, and we will make those clear before you apply.

Can I hold more than one currency?

Yes. Several of our partner providers offer multi-currency accounts, which is helpful if you invoice or pay in more than one currency.

How long does it take?

It depends on the provider and how quickly documents are supplied, but priority handling is designed to shorten the process compared with applying cold on your own.
