Related question: what bank would you go with for a super simple euro zone llc?
The requirements are simple:
- a proper EU based IBAN
- SEPA bank transfer
- SEPA direct debit
- proper customer support
- proper web experience
- debit card
- (preferably) limited credit card support
- honest and transparent pricing
There's obviously the company's home country banks, but I'm specifically wondering about banks offering EU wide services. Either I'm not looking well enough or there isn't really a decent bank offering these services EU wide:
- Many more traditional banks don't seem to be interested in working with companies in different EU countries.
A combination of a traditional bank that has certain duties towards business clients and a transfer service like Transferwise might be best.
An important part of certain banks like Sparkassen or state banks in Germany is the fact that they are legally bound to serve you. Private banks like N26 on the other hand can drop you at any point.
