Airwallex banking, handled for you

Airwallex is a go-to for cross-border e-commerce and global Amazon sellers: true multi-currency accounts across 9 currencies (CNH included), zero monthly and wire fees, and a 4.5% APY yield account. Foreign companies and foreign-owned US LLCs are supported — passport-only KYC, no SSN. We're an official channel partner, so our help is free — eligibility check first.

Why founders get stuck applying to Airwallex

Incomplete KYB — instant decline

Airwallex requires complete ID and beneficial-owner documentation for every major shareholder — one missing person is among the most common rejection causes.

Thin business profile — looks like a shell

No website, no customer proof, no visible operations — risk review treats it as a shell company. The other high-frequency rejection cause.

Industry lines are easy to cross

Crypto exchanges and unlicensed gambling are prohibited; crypto-adjacent businesses and China-origin dropshipping get heightened scrutiny — describe the business wrong and you hit a line.

Lots of product surface, unclear setup

Multi-currency global accounts, borderless cards, the yield account, integrations (Shopify/Amazon/Stripe) — configuring them around your actual money flows takes trial and error alone.

What we do for you

Pre-check & business framing

We assess whether Airwallex fits your business and industry, and frame the business description truthfully without tripping review lines.

KYB documents, complete first time

Formation docs plus complete ID and beneficial-owner info for every major shareholder, prepared to spec in one pass — the top rejection cause, so we watch it hardest.

Apply, correctly

We guide or complete each field, and shore up the website and proof of operations so the profile doesn't read as a shell.

Recover from a rejection

Rejected before? We diagnose why, adjust the strategy, and help you reapply or switch to a better-fit bank.

FAQ

Can I open Airwallex without a US company?+

Yes. Airwallex supports foreign company entities (including China-incorporated), as well as foreign-owned US LLCs / C-Corps — the pre-check confirms the path for your entity.

Do I need an SSN or US address?+

Neither. A passport works as ID, no US address is required, and there's no personal credit check.

Is it good for Amazon / cross-border e-commerce?+

That's its home turf: e-commerce, marketplaces, SaaS and trading are preferred industries; global Amazon settlement and multi-currency collection are its strengths — 9 currencies including CNH.

Can crypto businesses open an account?+

Crypto exchanges are prohibited outright; crypto-adjacent businesses face heightened scrutiny and it depends on the specifics — lay it out at the pre-check and we'll tell you straight.

What does it cost?+

Airwallex assistance is free. We're an official channel partner and the platform covers our fee — you pay us nothing. Add-ons like US company formation or website building are quoted separately if you need them.
