  • Can my current company onboard, or do you require a Benin company, local bank account, tax registration, local director, or resident signatory?
  • Are you providing acquiring, gateway sponsorship, mobile-money partnership access, SICA/STAR-linked transfer support, or only account services?
  • Who owns settlement, refunds, chargebacks, disputes, reconciliation, and operational support?
