Quick estimate

Get a quick estimate of cost for your licence type.

The FCA’s own data shows that three in four payments-portfolio applications fail to reach approval. Before you commit a five-figure advisory budget, see what a deterministically validated application actually costs. Complete the three steps below and your indicative pre-VAT estimate — with the market evidence behind it — is released on screen.

Step 1 — Your details

All fields are required. Your estimate is prepared against verified market data and released on screen once complete.

Step 2 — Your licence type

Step 3 — Fit & Proper self-check

The FCA assesses every application against its fit-and-proper test. Review each statement — use the button to understand why it matters — and tick each one you can confirm.
