Since October 2020, at Qonto, you can have various current accounts with dedicated IBANs, bank statements and payment methods.
That's what we call multiple accounts.
How many accounts can I have?
If you have at least one Smart plan on our Solo offer or if you have chosen a plan in the Team offer, you can open multiple accounts based on your needs.
The following tables show you the maximum number of multiple accounts you can have depending on your plan (including your main account) :
Solo offer
Basic | Smart | Premium |
1 | 2 | 5 |
Team offer
Essential | Business | Enterprise |
5 | 10 | 25 (additional charged) |
For example, you can create multiple current accounts to:
Divide your expenses items and save some money
Separate the different activities your run in your company
Allocate budgets (and credit cards) to your teams
This way, you can keep an eye and manage your cash flow, as desired.

Confirm the transfer by entering your confirmation code. Do you want to transfer money to one of your current accounts? When it's time to choose your beneficiary, just click on the Your accounts tab, at your right, and select the account of your choice.
Set up a new SDD
If it's about a SEPA Core Direct Debit, go to the Accounts section of your Qonto app, choose on which account you want to set up the SDD, and download its IBAN. If it's about a SEPA Direct Debits B2B, click on Set up a new direct debit in the Direct Debits section, and upload your signed mandate with all the details (creditor and mandate).
