Our verdict
Paysera suits businesses and frequent travellers who want a single multi-currency account with a debit card and instant SEPA transfers. Deposits are covered by EU DGS up to EUR 100,000, but a monthly fee of €1 and a variable rate type make it a payments account rather than a saver.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Paysera account cost?+
The card comes with a monthly fee of €1. Account administration is free unless the account sits unused for a long stretch with no login and no payment, when a monthly charge starts instead. Plans differ, so read the fee page for your own account before you sign up.
Is my money protected if Paysera fails?+
Deposits are covered by EU DGS up to EUR 100,000. Paysera is authorised by the Bank of Lithuania under licence 53 and is also an electronic money institution with reference PSD_EMI LT_LT_BL_300060819. The account itself is a multi-currency IBAN with instant SEPA transfers.
What card do I get and does it pay anything back?+
The card is debit and runs on the visa network, with a virtual card among the multi currency, virtual card and travel options. Rewards on the card are none, so spending earns nothing back and the card works as a payment tool rather than a rewards card.
Who is this account built for?+
The audience is business and the account kind is easy access, so it suits a company or a frequent traveller who wants a single multi-currency IBAN. The rate type is variable, which points to holding and paying out rather than earning interest.
How many currencies can I hold?+
You can hold and convert 30 currencies from the same account, and the multi-currency IBAN keeps the balances together. Instant SEPA transfers run around the clock, and a virtual card is available for online payments from the same balance.
What support can I reach?+
Support runs on phone and help centre, which means phone and a help centre. Neither chat nor email appears in the listed channels, so a call is the direct route for a question about a blocked card or a payment.
How does the account handle day to day payments?+
The account is built around a multi-currency IBAN with instant SEPA transfers that run around the clock, so incoming and outgoing payments do not wait for banking hours. The card is debit, which suits a business or traveller who pays and gets paid in more than a single currency.
