At Comply North, we help you overcome that challenge with a full-service Bank Onboarding Package designed specifically for MSBs. Whether you need Canadian domestic rails, international currency access, payment processors, or virtual asset liquidity providers, we match you with the right institutions and prepare a compliance-ready file that improves your chances of success.
MSBs are considered high-risk by many financial institutions especially those involved in crypto, FX, or international transfers. Even well-run businesses with clean records are often declined because of poor documentation or lack of clear communication.
That’s where we come in. It’s not just about applying. It’s about knowing what banks need, how they assess risk, and how to present your business with credibility.
Comply North maintains strong relationships with MSB-friendly providers and understands what it takes to build a file that earns trust and moves forward.

We’ve refined our approach to give you clarity, save time, and strengthen your onboarding file.
