Getting into an SRO takes months. Getting a bank to open an account for an SRO company can take longer, and sometimes never happens. This company is already a member of an SRO, and it already has accounts open with two payment institutions.
FintechLex is offering for sale a Swiss company limited by shares (SA), based in Zug and affiliated with SO-FIT, one of the self-regulatory organisations recognised by FINMA. Accounts are already open with two payment institutions. Their use after a change of shareholders or management is subject to each provider’s own conditions and checks.
The company at a glance
- Legal form: Swiss company limited by shares (SA / AG)
- Seat: Zug, Switzerland’s “Crypto Valley”
- Founded: 2020
- Share capital: CHF 100,000
- Anti-money laundering supervision: affiliated with SO-FIT, a FINMA-recognised SRO
- Activities: payments, money transfer and crypto/VASP services (virtual asset service provider)
- Accounts: pre-opened with two payment institutions
- Purpose in the articles: payment services, money transfer, traditional and decentralised financial services, online investment and trading in financial assets, and the structuring and management of investment products
Why this matters
Most SRO projects die at the bank, not at the SRO. You can have your membership certificate framed on the wall and still be unable to pay a single invoice, because no bank wants your file. Here, the payment accounts are already pre-opened, and that is usually the slowest, most uncertain part of the whole set-up.
The purpose in the articles is also broad, and that matters more than people think. It covers payments, money transfer, decentralised finance, online trading and investment products, so you don’t start with a company that has to change its articles before it can do what you bought it for.
That said, listing an activity in the articles does not mean the company is licensed to carry it out. Some activities may require an additional licence.
Optional: a turnkey package
If you want to start operating straight away, we can add, as options:
- A white-label account and card programme, so you can offer accounts and payment cards under your own brand
- A director
- A compliance officer, the person the SRO expects to see in charge of anti-money laundering
- Domiciliation in Switzerland
You buy the company alone, or the company plus the services you need. Your choice.
Who should look at this
- Crypto/VASP and payment businesses that want a Swiss base in Zug, using a company that is already an SRO member. Any change of shareholders, management or activity must comply with the SRO’s rules
- Foreign groups that need a Swiss financial intermediary with accounts ready to use
- Founders who would rather buy a working structure than spend months building one
How it works
The company’s identity and the full documentation are released after a non-disclosure agreement is signed. Every sale goes through a due diligence review. Any change of shareholders or management must be reported to the SRO, and new directors and owners must pass its checks. FintechLex guides you through all of it, from the first review to closing.
