How to open a Factorial Cards account

Learn how to open a Factorial Cards account to create virtual, single-use, and physical VISA debit cards for your company

What is a card account

A card account provides you with a simple and convenient way to create and manage virtual, single-use, and physical VISA debit cards for your company.

Once you have completed the account creation process, you will be assigned a new account number (IBAN), which you can use to transfer funds to your company balance via bank transfer.

Please note that it may take up to 2 business days for the funds to show up in your card account balance.

 


 

Documentation to create the account

You will be required for important information during the creation account process. Please, ensure you have all the necessary documents before you start the onboarding and KYB (Know Your Business) process.

Identity documents

  • Passport
  • Driver’s license
  • National identity document (DNI) (National ID) - scans of front and back are required
  • Foreigner Identity Card (Resident permit ID)

 

Address documents

  • Utility Bill
  • Bank statement or mobile phone invoice
  • Government issued letter
  • Residence certificate

 

Company documents

  • VAT Registration
  • NIF document

To ensure successful account verification, only a company representative with sufficient responsibility should complete the account information consistently throughout the entire process. Avoid multiple individuals entering data and uploading documents to prevent errors and delays in the verification process.
