Registered with the FCA

This firm is registered as a small payment institution. That is a lighter regime than full FCA authorisation, applied to smaller payment firms, and safeguarding of customer money is optional at this size.

Website, phone number and address

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.

  • Director or person responsible for management at the firm
    In the event that any director or person responsible for management (PSD individual) ceases to perform managerial functions at the firm, the firm must cease within 90 days - the registering and onboarding of new payment service users; and the provision of payment services to any new customers or payment service users, until the relevant PSD individual notification(s) has been processed by the FCA.
  • Provision of payment services
    The firm will provide money remittance services to the payment service users transmitting funds to Egypt only.

FCA disciplinary action and complaints

No FCA disciplinary action.

The Financial Ombudsman Service only publishes complaint figures for firms with 30 or more new complaints in six months, so there are none here for this firm.

Net assets

About these figures
Turnover
Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
Profit before tax
What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
Net assets, or total equity
Everything the company owns minus everything it owes. A minus figure means it owes more than it owns.
Total assets and total liabilities
Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.
Cash at bank
Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
Owed within a year, owed after a year
Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.

There is no turnover or profit: small companies do not have to publish them.

Accounts filed at Companies House for company 14882635. Every figure is as filed, apart from total assets and total liabilities, which are added up from filed figures. Nothing is estimated.
