Our team will review your application within 1 business day and let you know if we need more information.
All parties included in the application will receive an invitation by email to join the entity account, so you can tell them to expect an email from us.
The application will only progress when all members have accepted the email invitation and all accounts are verified users on Swyftx.
Finally, we will send you a message when the account is ready.
