We’re giving established businesses the banking they deserve

Fantastic 5* Service
We recently opened a business account with Allica Bank. Not only do they offer competitive rates, you get to discuss your requirements with a person not an computer!  The whole experience from start to finish was brilliant thanks to Emily our account manger, who we can't thank enough. High Recommend

So refreshing - make the switch!
Having decided to leave Santander who made life increasingly difficult for no apparent reason, we found Allica (thanks Google!). A little apprehensive since I'd not heard of them, but the switch was super easy, the web interface and app are fantastic, and there are even humans who answer emails and calls to help when needed. A real business bank account, finally!

It's like travelling back in time to…
when humans ran banks. Setting up the account has been so straightforward. Lauren has responded immediately to all my emails - with a phone call when that was easier. So far it's been a pleasure dealing with Allica. I don't often write reviews - I felt compelled to do so this time.

Superb process
The whole process from start to finish was brilliant. Hope was able to take me through the steps and understood the nature of my business so could offer the best advice. will definitely be keeping this account and setting up future ones with Allica.

Very easy to get set up and running
Interface seems intuitive and easy to use. Customer services have been proactive. The open banking seems to work well, with transactions pulling into accounting software. Happy to recommend Allica Bank based on my experience to date.

Outstanding to date!
For a Bank that was little known to myself, I can only say how impressed I've been with their service standards. Lauren was exemplary in explaining everything & I'm about to be allocated my named account Manager. Some lovely old fashioned human values here mixed with modern banking technology & a user friendly app.

Allica business banking done better

The best 2 years banking ever
I’ve been with Allica for 2 years now. I’ve seen them respond well to customer comments and the app has come a long way since I started using it. There may be differences between other banking apps but to have seen the improvements and taking on board feedback is refreshing. I can't fault the account facilities and the interest rate we get.

A breath of fresh air...
How business banking should be... Exceptional response from relationship manager and a clear, open and personal attitude to SME business needs.  Simple and easy banking app. Just what you need! Recommended to many other SME owners.

This is how a Bank should be run!
Excellent service from day one, moving to Allica from a hopeless Lloyds (who it seems no longer want SME business), big thank you to Maria who went out of her way to open our account over Christmas/ New Year and help us meet a deadline.

You’ve got questions.
We’ve got answers.

Allica are a no-nonsense bank built specifically to give established businesses with between 5 and 250 employees the banking they deserve.

We got our banking licence in 2019 and have grown quickly since then, being named in the 2024 Sunday Times 100 list of fastest-growing private companies.

Allica has offices in Milton Keynes, London and Manchester, and relationship managers up and down the country helping to give established businesses the banking they deserve.

Yes! All our current accounts and savings accounts are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). This means that, should anything happen to Allica Bank, any eligible deposit of up to £85,000 will be protected. 

Keep in mind this compensation covers all your accounts with Allica Bank , not each individual account. For example, if you have a total of £100,000 in two separate accounts with Allica Bank, the maximum compensation you could claim on your Allica’s deposits through FSCS is £85,000.

Find out more about your eligibility for FSCS coverage here. 

You can open a Business Rewards Account with Allica by completing our online application form (you can find it here). We’ll then give you a quick call to finish your application and answer any questions you have. So long as everything’s in order, your account should be opened within a few days.

There’s a few things we’ll need to check before we can open an account for you, including confirming the identity of your business and of its shareholders and directors (including any beneficial owners) to help combat fraud. We will aim to do as much of this automatically as we can, but it’s possible you’ll be asked to provide digital copies of identity documents and a proof of address.

We’ll also ask for your Company Number at Companies House so we can run a few checks on your business. 

Once you’ve made your application, we’ll aim to have your account open in just a few working days.
