What this means

You can’t sign up for a Luno Business account if you’re in a prohibited country or region.

For what reasons is a country deemed “prohibited”?

To comply with local regulations and international sanctions, we are not able to offer Luno Business accounts for businesses registered in your region. A Luno Business account may not be available in certain countries or regions for several reasons:

  • Is listed on one or more economic sanctions lists,
  • has regulatory, central bank or government restrictions on cryptocurrency, or or
  • falls outside Luno’s acceptable risk profile for processing transactions in, to, or from that location.
