Best fit and business types
Sole traders, micro-entrepreneurs and healthcare professionals via the streamlined online route; larger companies via a dedicated advisor.
Capabilities
- A dedicated professional account, separate from personal finances
- Card, chequebook and access to a business advisor
- Authorized overdraft for cash-flow fluctuations
How onboarding works
Fully online in a few steps for sole traders and micro-entrepreneurs (the Esprit Libre Pro offer); other legal forms go through an advisor-led process.
Baseline eligibility
The fast online route requires a SIREN number and French tax residence; other legal forms are assessed individually.
Restrictions and risk review
The fast online route is built for French tax residents — it is not a remote solution for foreign companies; standard KYC/AML checks apply.
