Basic Personal EMI Bank Account with an online card

[Elad]

Hi,
I'm an Israeli living in Thailand doing digital marketing. I have a US LLC with a US business account.
I'm looking for a personal EMI account to use for online payments. Amazon purchases, online courses, airbnb etc. It shouldn't be more than 1-3K USD spent a month.
So basically, I need an online account that can receive small transfers from my US business account and offers an online card.
Any suggestions? Something stable and easy?

Thanks in advance!

Did you try with Mercury Bank ?

Did you try with Mercury Bank ?

I think that they are only issuing business bank accounts. I actually already have a business bank account with them but I'm looking for a personal bank account to use for personal expenses. I'm a bit reluctant to use my business account for it.
Thank you

What about Wise what is wrong with them or Paysera? if it is a personal account you may use these services?

Hi,
Paysera is not available in Thailand and while wise are available they don't issue debit cards to Thailand so that defeats the purpose of opening an account with them.

the knack in your scenario is your current location.. do look into getting a pre verified personal EMI + card attached thats operational outside your location.

with the personal EMI you could send funds from your LLC to the personal Emi and access funds via card attached to it..the EMI should have a deposit criteria via swift or SEPA..

A good choice for you would be ABA Bank in Cambodia. USD debit cards both physical and virtual are available and no issue receiving transfers from a business ac elsewhere. Highly recommended, but a visit will be necessary. Otherwise Santander in Jersey will allow remote ac opening, transfers from a business ac and give you a USD debit card (not sure if they accept Israeli passport though as they are UK expat oriented)

Hi,
This sounds interesting. What are the requirements to open one in Cambodia? Can I just go in with a tourist visa?
Thanks

Hi
When I opened my a/c a few years ago a ‘business’ visa was required but you could get it at the airport when entering the country. Suggest you contact ABA Bank and ask what their current requirements are. They have excellent 24/7 English speaking customer service.
