What makes Qonto’s onboarding special?
When your customer already has a registered company with an established capital structure and stakeholder information, opening a Qonto account becomes a seamless experience. This process involves just a few simple steps, allowing them to quickly connect their existing business to Qonto’s comprehensive financial management solutions.
Our Onboarding flow is:
- ⚡️ fast: We’ve designed the onboarding process to be as quick and simple as possible. We aim to approve registrations within one business day, giving your customers immediate access to Qonto’s features.
- 🧘 hassle-free:
- Thanks to partnerships with trusted third parties (like INPI), we can automatically retrieve a lot of essential company data. That means your customers don’t have to re-enter information that’s already available—saving time and effort.
- We leverage all the information you provide, ensuring your customers don’t need to re-enter existing details—saving time and effort.
