Is Allica Bank right for me?

Important: This guide provides general information, not personalised financial advice. Financial products, rates and eligibility rules can change, so check the provider’s current terms before applying. You can check a firm’s details on the FCA Register.

FSCS protects eligible deposits up to £120,000 per person, per authorised institution.

Quick answer

Allica could suit an established business with £50,000 or more to keep in the account, that spends on card and wants a relationship manager. It’s not designed for start-ups.
