Frequently asked questions
What fees does Coba charge?
At Coba, we offer the Deposit Account and Virtual US Debit Card with no fee.
What is the difference between the Coba Deposit Account and a Wallet?
Coba is a Fintech (or financial technology) company. This means we don’t have a bank charter, but instead, partner with Bangor Savings Bank, Member FDIC. This allows us to provide you with banking products and services, and to insure your deposits with us up to the legal limit of $250,000 USD. In contrast, a Wallet won’t have the same flexibility and security that the current banking system can provide.
Who can open a Coba account and what information do I need to provide?
Coba was created for individuals living outside of the US, who need access to a U.S. based deposit account to receive payment from their U.S. employers. Coba is currently available to individuals living in Mexico.
To comply with banking regulations, we need to collect information that will allow us to verify your identity. This includes your personal information, Tax ID (RFC) and National ID Number (CURP), Government ID + Selfie picture and Proof address if different than address displayed on Government ID (utility bill, bank or credit card statement). In some cases, we may also ask for additional documentation to confirm your identity, but only if it’s completely necessary.
I want to receive my USD payments into a US Deposit Account. Do I owe taxes?
According to the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS), your residency status and the location where you perform your work as a contractor determines the source of your income for tax filing and tax payment purposes. This article from Deel (Payroll for Global Teams) offers additional information.

Coba members have access to a qualified tax expert as well as an easy in-app way to report payments, timbrar facturas to local authorities and even submit monthly tax declarations.
How is my money safe?
Funds in your Coba Deposit Account is insured by the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) through our partner bank, Bangor Savings Bank, Member FDIC, up to the legal limit of $250,000 USD.
