FAQ
Current accounts — key checks
Look at monthly fees, card/ATM charges, currency support, and overdraft rules. Check mobile app quality and whether Apple/Google/Garmin Pay are supported.
Personal vs Business accounts
Personal = everyday banking for individuals. Business = for registered companies (e.g., Ltd) and may have different fees, documents and features (e.g., bulk payments, multi-user access).
Overdraft — what to know
An overdraft lets the balance of current accounts go below zero up to a bank-approved limit. Interest is charged only on the used amount and can be higher than on regular loans. Learn about average interest levels here:

Banks may offer discounted fees or perks for younger customers. Age limits, required ID and parental consent vary—check eligibility before applying.
Other currencies supported
