Virtual accounts
  • Virtual Accounts are created under a physical account, allowing for creation of complex nested hierarchies reflecting your business needs.
  • Each Virtual Account is assigned an externally addressable Virtual IBAN (vIBAN), facilitating precise transaction routing and enhanced reconciliation.
  • Clients can manage these accounts through the Bank's Client API, enabling seamless integration with your existing systems.​
  • The system supports base rate tracker interest, which can be configured per Virtual Account via the Client API (for eligible accounts).
*‘AER' means ‘annual equivalent rate' and is designed to make it easy for you to compare products. It tells you how much interest you'd earn if you put some money in an account and left it there for a full year. It takes account of things like how often the interest is paid and assumes any interest paid during that year is added to the balance and earns interest.**Interest is accrued daily each recognised business day in England and Wales, and applied monthly.
