A euro bank account for UK businesses
Hold, send and receive euros with ease.
What is the account?
Run a UK business with links to Europe? Whether you’ve got French suppliers, Portuguese contractors or customers all over Europe, hold, send and receive euro payments with Starling’s business euro bank account.
Want to convert your euros into pounds or vice versa? Make it happen with a tap. You’ll get a great exchange rate, with a 0.4% conversion fee* added on top – no hidden commission, no sneaky extra charges. Lovely.
All for an account fee of just £2 a month.
You can send euro payments to countries within the SEPA network only, making it easy to pay businesses across Europe.
Ready to get started? You’ll need a Starling business account first. Once you’re set up, you can apply for a euro account directly in the Starling app in just a few taps.
*Low fixed fee of 0.4%, in addition to the exchange rate, for transfers between your Starling accounts (margin applied on exchange rate for weekends and bank holidays). For more details, visit our FAQs.
Why it’s better
More than currency
When you bank with Starling, you get more than just a bank account. Expect a whole host of helpful money management features that’ll help your business grow – like instant payment notifications, spaces for separating tax from overheads and 24/7 support.
Weekend transfers
Transfer between your Starling GBP and euro accounts 24/7 – even at the weekend. Exchange rates vary during working days, but are fixed at weekends. We’ll always show you the available rate, so you can choose to wait until Monday morning.
One-card wonder
Use a single debit card to manage your EUR and GBP business accounts. If you want your EUR card transactions to come from your EUR account, go to the ‘Card and Currency Controls’ section in the app and turn it on with a tap.
Secure
Starling’s euro business bank account comes complete with its own unique IBAN. And because Starling is a fully-licensed bank, all your eligible deposits are covered to £120,000 (or equivalent) by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
