General information, not financial, legal, or tax advice. Verify current terms and eligibility with the provider before applying.

Yes, with limits. As of 24 December 2025, MultiPass markets a business account for operating in Canada and onboards corporate entities from many countries on a case by case basis. It is a UK issued multi currency e-money account that holds, receives and sends Canadian dollars, rather than a domestic Canadian bank account, and it is not covered by a deposit guarantee. Confirm your eligibility and current pricing with the provider.

Does MultiPass serve business customers in Canada?

Yes, with limits. MultiPass is a multi currency business account provided by MultiPass Platforms Limited, an electronic money institution authorised in the United Kingdom by the Financial Conduct Authority. It publishes a Canada solution and states that a business can operate in Canada with or without a local presence using a multi currency IBAN that supports the Canadian dollar. It onboards corporate entities from a wide list of countries, reviewed case by case against its risk appetite policy, so whether a specific Canadian registered company is accepted depends on that review. The account is issued from the United Kingdom rather than as a domestic Canadian account, and as an electronic money account it is not protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme or a Canadian deposit guarantee. As of 24 December 2025.

Eligibility for businesses in Canada

MultiPass opens accounts for corporate entities, not personal customers, and onboards companies from many countries subject to compliance checks. Applicants provide identity and proof of address documents for owners and operators, company incorporation documents, and supporting information such as recent account statements and financial reports. Onboarding is assessed case by case under the provider risk appetite policy, and some industries and countries are restricted. Verify with the provider

What it costs locally

For its Canada solution MultiPass lists account opening from 500 pounds sterling and account maintenance from 100 pounds per month, with issuing of the IBAN and local UK and US details free, and it notes that pricing varies from case to case. Currency conversion and individual payments may carry additional charges. These figures are quoted in pounds sterling rather than Canadian dollars, so confirm the exact schedule for your company with the provider. As of 24 December 2025

What local users report

MultiPass positions itself for import and export, e-commerce, startups and holding companies that make cross border payments, and highlights Canadian dollar payments by SWIFT with Direct Entry available on request. Because it is an electronic money institution, it safeguards customer funds rather than holding them as insured bank deposits, which differs from a deposit guarantee, and it works as a cross border payment account rather than full local banking. Confirm how your money is protected and which local payment rails you need before relying on it.
