After the bank processes the application and conducts its due diligence, your account will be approved. Typically, this process takes between 5 to 10 business days. - Account Activation: Once your business account is approved, you’ll receive your bank account details, debit/credit cards, and online banking credentials. You can then begin managing your business finances efficiently.
