List of EMI and Digital Banks

[Yara Dager]

Do you have to verify your account somehow in order for the mail forwarding to be activated?

PS: @Admin I will open a nea thread for the same if I have more questions.

I called them today over the phone... they said they will sure ask for an ID or Passport copy. For address verification, it depends on the local dealer in each country. So you will have to contact the local dealer of Aramex at your country. Their address is here: https://www.aramex.com/

But again, if they are going to deliver a package to you, they will know your real physical address. Otherwise, the package will go somewhere. They do not offer mail scanning service.

but this could work if that address is a postal box near by where I can pickup the parcel or?

Does anyone know anything about Die DMAX CARD - Prepaid MasterCard mit Hochprägung und IBAN Konto . I applied, paid for the card, uploaded the ID, received the confirmation of card issuing but afterwards they announced me that they will cancel my application.

no it wont.. they require hand to hand delivery (like FedEx and DHL)

No. The website is DE hosted and in German and Latvia IBAN individual for amount that come from EU countries and shared for the rest of the world.

hi @suzy
yes pretty much these are it for the time being, there are a couple of more coming up later on in the year
if you find something else to add to the list please share

Do you have any idea when this will be and how they will look? do you have some insider info?

Thanks, Germany means lots of reporting and stay away

When I applied, they were just starting up.. they took only an ID copy..

but they are a hand to hand service.. so if you receive a mail at any of those cities... they will deliver it to your home address hand to hand only in 3-6 days

Thank you for clarification very helpful.

If you order a debit card with one EMI provider you will need physical delivery anyway?

 

[cutmetwo]

no it wont.. they require hand to hand delivery (like FedEx and DHL)

So a Virtual office service with real person to receive the parcel would be required?

 

[Yara Dager]

It is not a virtual office. It is a mail forwarding service... they provide you with addresses in all those countries.. when you receive a mail package, they deliver it from that country you used, to your actual home address

 

[DeMajor]

Is there any mail service where they sign for the parcel received and you can pickup at their office?

 

[belarus]

Interesting question, would like to know about such a service too if anyone has something to share please?

 

[belarus]

By the way is anyone aware of new EMI providers that we could add to the initial post list?

 

[cutmetwo]

anyone has an update?

 

[negon]

There are actually new threads around with alternatives. Atm. I'm travelling so I won't have time to add them to the list rght now but do a forum search.

 

[Milky Moon]

Revolut now also offers IBAN accounts.

You get a LT based account, with REVOGB21 as BIC.

REVOGB21XXX | Swift / BIC code for REVOLUT LTD bank located in LONDON - UNITED KINGDOM (GB)

 

[MrUnstoppable]

Great comprehensive list!

Does anyone have an idea if any of those Digital Banks are cryptocurrency friendly?

E.g. apparently LeuPay will suspend your account as soon as they notice some activity related to Bitcoin.

 

[bizworks]

Advcash.com are crypto friendly, they have a bitcoin funding facility. A good EMI with papaer and virtual debit cards - but only a company-wide IBAN and you can only fund personal accounts with fiat from business accounts. You get round this by funding with bitcoin.
