Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / company survey
Dutch term or phrase: koppelingseis
From the same survey into retailers' debit card contracts with banks. The context is :De meeste respondenten sloten echter hun nieuwe contract af bij de huisbank en aangezien men daar al de (meeste) diensten afneemt speelde deze
koppelingseis bij het sluiten van een nieuw pincontract niet. Some kind of requirement?

demand/requirement for conditional service(s)
Explanation:
The idea of 'koppelen' in this phrase is mainly related to expressions like 'koppelverkoop' = conditional sale(s)

'demand' might be slightly more 'klantvriendelijk than 'requirement'

Several options may, depending on further context, be more helpful.

demand for additional services
demand for (an)extra/additional contract(s)/service(s)

agree  Lawyer-Linguist: in other words because the client will already have the majority of its dealings at the "huisbank" the suspensive condition for obtaining a PIN contract is already met//mij plezier zoals altijd ;-)
