If the legal form of your company is a registered cooperative (eG) or a partnership company (PartG), we may require additional information and documents from you to activate your account.


Please go to your Qonto account dashboard, check and modify your business data where needed and confirm it.



Why do I have to additionally check my company data when I switch to Qonto as an eG or PartG?

  • Qonto is a regulated financial institution and therefore is under the obligation to check the information of all its clients. The company information must not be older than 24 months.
  • Not all records we receive from Solaris SE meet these criteria.
  • We therefore need you to go to your account dashboard, check and modify the data were needed and confirm it.


Go to your company profile

  • In the left menu, click on Settings & Tools → Account settings → Company profile.
