Curve app in Switzerland or outside EU/EEA

Why you need Curve and how to get it now

I signed up for the card using a relative’s UK address and received it within a week. Wasn’t asked for any KYC documents at the time. Was even able to use it a few times overseas (outside the EEA). However, Curve eventually locked my account and asked for evidence of residence in the EEA (passport, visa, recent utility bill in your name…). So they may not ask for KYC documents at signup, but they likely will eventually.

Personally, I signed up from Canada and I have been using it here for extended periods of time without issues but I do have a legit EU footprint, have some EEA-issued cards linked in the app and use the card within the EEA from time to time (well, pre-Covid-19 at least). YMMV.
