How to open your business account

It is opened by the person who represents the business, from their personal Pitiklini account. If you do not have an account yet, you create one as you start.

Opening the account is free of charge.

Crypto-assets are volatile, and part or all of the amount invested may be lost. Their price can change quickly, and it may not be possible to sell them at the desired time or price. They are not covered by the Spanish Deposit Guarantee Fund of Credit Institutions (FGD) or by the Spanish investor compensation scheme (FOGAIN).

The steps

  1. Your personal account

    You log in with your Pitiklini account or create one as you start. If you have already verified your identity, you do not have to do it again.

  2. The business details

    You fill in its details and upload its documents from the app. You can stop halfway and carry on whenever you like.

  3. The Pitiklini review

    Someone on the team reviews the application before sending it for verification and, if anything is missing, tells you what.

  4. The verification

    Then our provider verifies it. If the business has beneficial owners, each of them gets an email to verify their identity.

  5. The account, open

    Once the verification is approved, the business account shows up in your app.

Businesses that cannot open one

Those incorporated or based in Afghanistan, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, Myanmar (Burma), North Korea, Russia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.
