What We Build

Account Creation

Provision virtual bank accounts for users or entities in your platform. Each account has unique payment instructions and an independent balance in your ledger.

Payment Instructions

Generate and display account-specific payment instructions (sort code/account number, routing/account number, IBAN/BIC) that users share to receive transfers.

User Balances & Ledger

A ledger that tracks every credit, debit, and internal transfer. Provides reliable, real-time balance views per account with a full audit trail.

Incoming Transfer Detection

Detect and process incoming bank transfers in real time via banking partner webhooks. Match to the correct account and update the ledger.

Payout Initiation

Users and admins can initiate payouts from virtual account balances to external bank accounts. Route via the appropriate payment rail (ACH, SEPA, Faster Payments).

Reconciliation

Automated matching of bank transactions to ledger entries. Exception handling for unmatched items and an admin workflow for resolution.

Dashboards

User-facing balance and transaction history views, plus an admin dashboard with account management, payment monitoring, and compliance tools.

KYC / KYB & Risk Controls

Identity and business verification before account activation. AML screening and transaction monitoring embedded in the platform.

Webhooks & Reporting

Real-time payment event webhooks for downstream system updates, plus settlement and compliance reporting exports.

Compliance & Regulatory Note

Virtual bank account products sit within the regulated payments and e-money space. Depending on your jurisdiction and product structure, you may need to partner with a licensed e-money institution or payment institution, or obtain relevant authorization yourself. We build the software platform and API integrations; we do not provide banking, payment institution, or e-money services directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a virtual bank account in a fintech context?
A virtual bank account is a software-level account that gives a user unique payment instructions (account number, sort code, or IBAN) through which they can receive bank transfers. The funds are held at the platform level, typically within a banking partner's pooled account, and credited to the user's ledger balance. It is not a full bank account with a banking license — it is a payment account built on top of a licensed banking partner.
What banking partners can you integrate with?
We integrate with BaaS providers such as Modulr, ClearBank, Railsr, Synapse, Column, and others depending on the markets, currencies, and payment rails you need. The right partner depends on your geography and regulatory requirements.
Can accounts support multiple currencies?
Yes, depending on the banking partner capabilities. We build multi-currency balance management so each account can hold balances in multiple currencies, with FX conversion options if needed.
How does reconciliation work?
Incoming transfers arrive at the banking partner and trigger a notification to our backend. The system matches the transfer to the correct virtual account and ledger record, then credits the balance. Unmatched items go to an exception queue for admin review.
Can users make outbound payments from their virtual account?
Yes. We build payout initiation flows that allow users or admins to send funds from virtual account balances to external bank accounts via ACH, SEPA, Faster Payments, or other rails supported by the banking partner.
What compliance is required?
Depends on jurisdiction and product structure. At minimum, KYC/KYB for account holders and AML monitoring are standard. Offering payment accounts to users may require your platform or banking partner to hold an e-money or payment institution license. We build the compliance controls; you work with qualified legal counsel to define your obligations.
