Brno is one of the biggest money cities in the Czech Republic. In the Czech Republic, people switch easily to banks and apps that feel simpler. Most of it flows through Česká spořitelna and ČSOB. A brand built for Brno, its neighbourhoods, communities and small businesses, can win people the national giants treat as just another account number.
How Brno pays today
Brno is the Czech Republic's second city and a big student town, it uses the koruna, and people bank with ČSOB, Česká spořitelna and Komerční banka.
A brand built for Brno's students, tech workers or small businesses can offer something the big banks don't.
Who you'd be competing with in Brno
The big banks, Česká spořitelna and ČSOB, are everywhere in Brno. The apps won people over by being simpler. Your edge is being local: your language, your community, your city's name on the card.

Permissions: the honest part
The accounts, cards and payments behind your platform are powered by licensed partners. Depending on what your platform does and who it serves, you may also need your own registration, and serving customers in the Czech Republic can bring local rules from the Czech National Bank. We tell you in writing which permissions apply to your platform before you launch, and introduce specialists who handle them. We are not licensed advisers and don't guarantee outcomes.

Questions people ask
Can I really compete with Česká spořitelna in Brno?
Not on size on day one. But you can beat any big bank on focus: a platform built for one city, community or kind of customer, with a better experience and fairer fees.
Can I call it a bank?
In most countries, including the Czech Republic, "bank" is a protected word you can only use with a banking licence. Call it an account, an app or a platform.
Is SendPay Business connected to Česká spořitelna?
No. We name them only to describe the market. SendPay Business is an independent technology company, not a bank.
Should I put Brno in my app's name?
It can help if you only plan to serve Brno, because people trust a local name. If you want to grow across the Czech Republic later, pick a name that still works outside the city. The free name generator gives you ideas and opens your favourite straight in the builder.
