Open a US Bank account from India - No ITIN or SSN Required

Hello everyone,
If you are a freelancer, a remote worker, or you receive payment in USD to your Indian account, then you are losing markup fees because of the transfer (currency exchange).
Do you know that you can open a real US bank account, receive payment directly to that account, and hold your money in USD?
Yes, it's absolutely possible. As an Indian, you can open a digital US bank account using your Indian passport.
No SSN or ITIN is required.
As you all know, you cannot open a traditional US bank account without visiting the country physically. So I'm talking about a digital bank account, a fully functional, proper US bank account with all the features you get from a traditional bank and the same level of security. Your money will be insured by the FDIC up to $250,000.

I'm talking about the Utoppia digital bank account; its banking services are provided by Synapse Brokerage LLC, a registered broker-dealer and member of SIPC, and Lineage Bank, a member of the FDIC (accounts are provided by Synapse Brokerage LLC, and the deposits are held with Lineage Bank, Member FDIC).
Utoppia is just like a Fi/Niyo bank account.

Eligibility Criteria-
Anyone from the listed countries can open a Utoppia Bank account.

Wire transfer feature
ACH transfer feature
FDIC Insurance ($250,000)

This is the first and very important step you have to complete if you want to hold a US credit card in the future. You need a US bank account to pay your card bill.
