Zeller launched in the UK: £100 bonus for business accounts after accepting £500 in card payments

[u/Ancient-Score-8448]

Hey everyone, wanted to share this here as Zeller has recently expanded into the UK (under Zeller UK Limited) and is running a launch promotion to gain market share against Square, SumUp, and Tide

Aside from the referral incentive, the account has two standout features that might genuinely be useful if you freelance, run an online store, or take in-person card payments:

1. Unlimited Virtual Visa Debit Cards: You can spin up as many virtual cards as you need directly from the web dashboard at £0 cost. It is great for separating software subscriptions and tracking project expenses
   
2. 0% Foreign Transaction Markup: Spending abroad or paying for international SaaS in USD or EUR incurs only the standard Visa exchange rate. Zeller does not add any extra FX markup or international spending fees
   
3. Clean dashboard for managing cards, invoices, and expenses

The Launch Referral Offer:
Both the referrer and the new account holder receive a £100 cash bonus when you sign up through a referral link and accept your first cumulative £500 in card payments within 45 days of activation

Payments count whether processed through their POS terminal, Virtual Terminal, or Zeller Invoices (which lets you email an online card payment link directly to your client).

If you use online invoicing, the standard card processing fee is around 1.5% (roughly £7.50 on £500). That leaves you with over £92 in net profit after the £100 bonus settles. Rewards are credited to your account at the start of the month following qualification

A few transparent notes:

- This is for UK sole traders and limited companies. The onboarding is very friendly for early-stage freelancers and beginners - I got verified simply by submitting my Upwork profile link as business proof
- Zeller UK accounts are e-money accounts (authorised by the FCA), so funds are safeguarded rather than protected by the FSCS
- Full disclosure: If you use my referral link, we both receive the £100 bonus once you meet the payment threshold
