GBP NAMED ACCOUNT

A GBP account in your business's name. Without a UK bank.

A dedicated UK account number and sort code, held in your business's own name, so you can receive GBP payments and pay out to UK banks without opening a traditional UK bank account.

Illustrative example — not a real account.

Getting a UK bank account is slow, or impossible.

Businesses outside the UK that need to trade in GBP, receiving payments from UK customers, paying UK suppliers, or holding sterling as working capital, are left with two bad options.

Wait on a UK bank

Without a local presence, onboarding takes months, or never opens at all, while deals that require a UK account number pass you by.

Convert on receipt

With nowhere to hold sterling, you pay away margin converting currency earlier than you need to.

What comes with a GBP Named Account.

Five things, issued off the verification you complete at onboarding, and visible on your dashboard from day one.

  1. 1

    A dedicated account number and sort code

    Issued in your business's name, not a shared reference-based account.

  2. 2

    Receive GBP payments directly

    Customers and partners can pay you like they would any UK business.

  3. 3

    Hold a GBP balance

    Keep funds in sterling instead of converting immediately, and convert when the time is right.

  4. 4

    Pay out to UK banks

    Settle suppliers, payroll, or other UK obligations directly from your GBP balance.

  5. 5

    Verified once, ready to transact

    Account issuance is tied to your TranzyPay KYB/KYC verification, part of onboarding, not a separate process.

Built for businesses trading into and out of the UK.

Exporters and service businesses

Invoicing UK customers who expect to pay into a UK account.

A GBP Named Account isn't a standalone product bolted onto payments. It plugs directly into the rest of your TranzyPay activity, under the same KYB/KYC verification you've already completed.
