Jeton
Jeton is an e-wallet run by Jeton Bank Limited, licensed by the Financial Services Unit of Dominica, connected with 25+ countries and 50 payment methods. Account fees are waived and local bank-transfer top-ups are free, but its public fee page does not list exchange, withdrawal or wallet-to-wallet fees, so check them in the app. Useful for merchants that take Jeton; less transparent than a regulated EU or UK neobank.

- Free local bank-transfer top-ups (EUR 10 to 10,000)
- Virtual card from 0.99 USD/EUR
