Our take
Monabanq is a Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale online bank, sold through Cofidis Group. ACPR. FGDR up to €100,000. Founded 2006 — older than the word neobank. BforBank is Crédit Agricole. L by LCL Pro is LCL. Three French digital banks, three group caps. Directories dump it next to N26. N26 is German EdB. This is FGDR at a CM-group credit institution.
Villeneuve-d'Ascq. Remote-only from birth. ‘Élu Service Client de l’Année’ is the billboard. The licence is the review.

Licence
ACPR. FGDR. Shared CM cap. Older than the word neobank.
Monabanq holds a banking-style licence (ACPR / Banque de France / ECB). Still read the legal entity on the statement, not the app icon.
