For your business
Your account may run on Modulr.
Payment companies and apps in the UK and Europe give their customers accounts held at Modulr. Three things to check:
Who holds the money
Look in the terms for “provided by Modulr FS Limited” or “Modulr Finance B.V.”. Then Modulr's e-money licence protects your money, and the app acts as its agent or distributor.
Not a bank deposit
Modulr says it is not a bank. Money is safeguarded, not covered by the FSCS or a deposit guarantee scheme.
Keep a second account
Two apps on the same partner can fail together. A second account issued by a different institution keeps salaries and suppliers paid.
