Purchasing Crypto With Mercury

[prepaiddays]

BMO, WF and dozens of others in the U.S. Arrange meetings at local branches and make the business look attractive for them. You should leave something on the table in terms of their not cheap products and a d

Do you mean that I'd need to offer them to hold 100,000+ as a reserve for the duration of the account? I tried with 30,000 in the past with no success.

We have tried dozens of banks and after hearing the business description or receiving the documents they usually speak with compliance and come back with a declined response. Although we have not tried BMO so I will likely be at one of their branches first thing monday morning. Are there any other specific banks you know of that would allow Transactions to exchanges? Are you telling these banks that you are going to send wires to exchanges or are you just doing it after the account is opened? (with brick and mortar banks)

You probably don’t have your presentation in order.
You need to explain the crypto part as purely incidental to your operations.

30k won’t work.
You are moving millions, hence you should leave 7 figures in the bank or you will just be considered an annoyance and will be rejected.

I think you've helped me understand why we're being rejected in that case then. It sounds like most banks feel the reserve amount we've offered doesn't align with the liability of accepting our transactions due to the volume?
Do you know anyway around this other than paying a fintech that provides crypto friendly business bank accounts 10,000 or more a month or do you think that sounds like it's likely the best option for our business at this time?

It’s not a reserve amount, it’s just what makes it worth for them to do business with you. Banks are in the business of making money, not of helping their clients with buying crypto.

I don’t understand what you are talking about.

I don’t see the problem with making a bank happy if all what you said about your business is true.

Our clients make purchases paying in advance for the games and we only make a five figure profit per month after processing 7 figures in transactions so we don't have capital to fund 7 figures to the account though that amount would be deposited(and withdrawn) over the course of the month.

I was mentioning that there are fintech companies that partner with banks to provide accounts to companies dealing in the crypto industry and we've been quoted at $10,000 monthly. Since we're unable to maintain a 7 figure daily balance or reserve at the banks would you say that's likely a better option for us at this stage?

Leave your profit with the bank and accumulate. This might be acceptable to some banks.

They are screwing you.

Do you know any banks that might be more flexible in allowing us to scale the daily balance by leaving the profit in?

Would you say $10,000 a month is far too high? Do you know of any more cost effective options?

your business is super high risk in terms of AML. Find a very small local private bank and pay a significant account maintenance fee monthly then it would work

Any recommendations?

 

[SCHLOSSFINANZ]

Our buyers prepay so then we have to pay the sellers of the games and some of them prefer to be paid in crypto. Do you know what size AUM I should be targeting? Is there a reason you specifically mentioned Florida?

 

[SCHLOSSFINANZ]

Florida is more relaxed banking wise due to influx of South American "investors" LOL
> 1 Mio AUM plus a decent monthly account fee
