• Proof of income, including payslips or statements 
• Details of any debts you currently hold, including balances, limits and monthly repayments

Before we can provide you with a financial service, it’s a regulatory requirement that we verify your identity and your financial information. See how we verify your identity.

We’ll open your account once your application is approved. The timing depends on how quickly we can verify your identity and complete our assessment of your income documentation. We’ll email you to let you know if your application is successful and when your account is open and ready to use.
