## What is a EUR bank account for a business?

A EUR business account gives a company an IBAN in its own name. With Rivet, clients across the SEPA zone pay it by SEPA or SEPA Instant, and the euros land in a EUR balance, ready to hold, convert or pay out. It is available from the Growth plan, after verification.

## What each line does

### Account name

Your registered company name, exactly as it should read on the client’s side. Euro-area banks check it.

### IBAN

The one number a European payer needs. It carries the country, the bank and the account.

### BIC

Identifies the bank. Many SEPA payments no longer ask for it, but it does no harm on the invoice.

## How clients pay you

One IBAN reaches clients across the SEPA zone, and every payment arrives in a EUR balance.

- SEPA Instant Seconds, around the clock When the client’s bank sends it, weekends included

- SEPA One to two banking days Regular supplier payments

## Who it suits

Invoice in euro and let the client pay as they would pay a local supplier, with your company as the payee.

Collect euro in one balance instead of converting each payout into another currency on arrival.

Hold euro where it was earned and pay sellers from the same balance on SEPA.
