Frequently asked questions
Can I receive my salary at Alpian?
Yes, you can receive your salary directly into your Alpian account.
Simply share your Alpian account details (IBAN and BIC) with your employer. Salaries can be paid into your multicurrency account in CHF, EUR, USD, or GBP, depending on your employment setup.
To find your account details:
Open the Alpian app, go to your Profile section, and tap IBAN to access your document with all your account details, ready to share with your employer.
Your employer can then transfer your salary directly to Alpian, just like with any other Swiss bank.
How do I open an account with Alpian?
To open an account with Alpian, begin by downloading the app, available for both iOS and Android devices. During the sign-up process, you will be asked to provide some personal information and complete a quick ID verification to ensure security and compliance.
Eligibility requirements: You must hold a valid Swiss residence permit and provide an original, valid passport or national ID. Please note that photocopies will not be accepted.
Activating your account: The final step to activate your account involves making a deposit that must come from a bank account registered in your name at a licensed bank located either in Switzerland or a FATF country.
Important: Because of FINMA regulations, deposits from neo-banks and financial platforms that do not hold a banking license such as Neon, PayPal, Revolut, Yuh, or Wise are not accepted.
Is my money guaranteed with Alpian?
Yes, your money is protected with Alpian.
Alpian is a fully licensed Swiss bank, regulated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). As a Swiss bank, Alpian is a member of the deposit guarantee scheme esisuisse, which protects client deposits up to CHF 100’000 per client in the event of a bank failure.
In addition, Alpian is part of the Intesa Sanpaolo Group, one of Europe’s leading banking groups, reinforcing the security and stability behind our operations.
Your assets and deposits are protected in accordance with Swiss banking regulations, ensuring the same level of security as with any other Swiss bank.
How does the multi-currency account work?
Our multi-currency account allows you to hold the four most commonly used currencies—CHF, EUR, USD, and GBP—under a single IBAN. This feature enables you to hold, transfer, pay, save, and receive money in these currencies without the need for multiple bank accounts.
Funds are credited in the currency they are received in. For example, if you receive 100€, it will be credited and stored in euros. This is perfect for frequent travelers and expats, as it allows you to manage your finances without commissions or high exchange rates.
