FAQs

Common questions

How long does an EMI licensing application take?

Timelines vary by regulator workload and application quality. A well-prepared FCA EMI application typically takes several months from submission to authorisation; provide a realistic estimate after an initial business-model review.

Do you support Small EMI and Small Payment Institution applications as well as full authorisation?

Yes — the supplied copy states that both full and small-scale registrations are supported and that Frontiers can advise on the route appropriate to transaction volumes and growth plans.
