If youâre referring to Ferratum, no they shouldnât have any transfer limits. Like any bank they could ask for additional documentation before executing large and/or otherwise suspicious transfers.
They do have some card spend limits, however:
| Daily ATM withdraws | 1,000⏠|
| Daily card purchases | 3,000⏠|
| Daily online use | 3,000⏠|
I am holding a Canadian passport but without a Canadian address, lives mostly outside of Canada.
I have checked most of sites you recommended, but looks like I can not open an account with any one of them. (maybe only Leopay is possible).
How about Paypal, looks like it is widely accepted at online shopping sites. How about opening an account without residency proof.
As a Canadian citizen you donât need residency proof to open an N26 account either. For more details, see here. But you will need a (temporary) address in Europe to receive the card.
Regarding Paypal, they have insane fees and once you use your account for a bit they can become quite annoying with requesting proof or residency and other things. So I wouldnât recommend using them more than necessary.
Hi guys! Has anyone tried Azlo before? Itâs a new startup out of California made by/for solo entrepreneurs/ nomads, etc. and suppose to take the hassle out of everything by straight forward no fees checking. I did a bit of research and decided to give it a try and signed up however it took the one month to get back to me with an email saying I was not approved, immediately followed by another email saying, sorry you have been approved. Made me a bit skeptical and am just curious if anyone here has experience with them or not. Thy just opened February 2018. Thanks!

TWB starts charging for transfer.
" Weâre adding a small fixed fee of around 0.80 ⏠to send money.
From 1st December, there will be a small fixed fee to send money from your borderless account, to another bank account.
The total fee will depend on whether youâre sending from one currency to another, or transfering money in a single currency. Hereâs how that works:
To send money from one currency to another, youâll pay the usual conversion fee, plus the small, fixed fee.
For instance, if youâre sending money from your GBP balance to a bank account in EUR, youâll pay the 0.35% conversion fee, plus 0.80 âŹ. The fixed fee varies by currency, you can find the full list here.
To send money in one currency youâll only pay the small, fixed fee.
For instance, if youâre sending money from your EUR balance to a bank account in EUR, youâll only pay 0.80 âŹ."

Hi.
I am looking for a TransferWise alternative after they decided to close my account. In details I need an USD account (even only it) under my name: which are the options?
