You should also think about how much you'll need to deposit in cash every month and whether you'll need to make <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.businessinsider.com/personal-finance/banking/wire-transfer-fees\" data-analytics-product-module=\"body_link\" rel=\"\">wire transfers</a>.</p>"},{"question":"Can I use a personal bank account as a business account?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Yes, you can use a personal checking account for your business — but doing so comes with complications.

class=\"faq-answer\">Some online-based free business checking accounts allow you to make cash deposits at select retailers or ATMs. You may have to pay a fee (up to $4.95) for each deposit, though.</p>"},{"question":"How do free business checking accounts differ from traditional business checking accounts?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">A free business checking account differs from a traditional business checking account because it doesn't charge any monthly service fees.</p>"}],"showRecirc":false,"paywall":{"isExempt":true}},"path":"/personal-finance/banking/best-business-checking","attributes":{"amazonTrackingID":"bi-auto-74331-20","categories":["Business

Here are the BBB scores for our top picks:U.S. Bank has a B+ rating from the Better Business Bureau due to government action against the business.The BBB gave American Express an F rating because it has failed to respond to some complaints filed against the company and has unresolved customer complaints.Some of these companies have recent public controversies.The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against Citizens Bank and claimed that the bank denied customers' claims of unauthorized credit card use and billing mistakes, didn't fully refund customers when they reported fraud, and didn't properly respond to customers when they contacted Citizens Bank about these issues.In 2022, American Express paid $430,500 in a settlement with the United States Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency fined U.S. Bank $15 million for the same reason.In 2022, U.S. Bank paid $37.5 million in a settlement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The CFPB accused the bank of obtaining customers' credit reports and opening checking accounts, savings accounts, credit cards, and lines of credit without their knowledge.If these recent scandals worry you, you may decide to bank with one of our other top picks.Below, you'll find our top picks for business checking accounts. To determine the best checking accounts for small businesses, we reviewed each account to ensure they did not charge high monthly service fees and had minimal fees for other common bank charges. We narrowed our options further by assessing opening requirements and how many free transactions you can make monthly with an account. We also ensured that each account was either FDIC-insured or NCUA-insured, depending on whether it was a bank or a credit union. Some of our choices even offer enhanced FDIC insurance through insured cash sweeps.We reviewed over a dozen financial institutions to find the best business checking accounts with no or low monthly bank maintenance fees. Banks can limit how many monthly transactions you can make on a business checking account. You'll be charged a fee for each transaction that surpasses the limit.Monthly transaction limits on business checking accounts are more likely to occur at brick-and-mortar banks than online banks. If you want to avoid transaction fees, there are some banks that allow unlimited monthly transactions, some of which are in our top picks.Banks can charge you for using an ATM that isn't in their network. If you frequently travel for your business and utilize ATMs, look for a bank that has a national ATM network or offers reimbursements for ATM fees.The type of bank you choose can also impact your access to additional banking services. For example, brick-and-mortar banks tend to offer a greater variety of business loans or business credit cards than online banks and banking platforms. If you're interested in opening a business savings account or business CD, you can also check to see if those types of bank accounts are available at a specific financial institution.Some financial institutions offer recordkeeping, payment processing, and invoicing tools, either built-in to your mobile banking app or integrated using other software. If you want an all-in-one banking software that allows you to draft and send invoices, keep track of all of your finances, make and receive payments, and manage your money in one place, a business checking account with those features can come in handy.Check what tools come with your account, or see if your account integrates easily with accounting software like QuickBooks or software that offers merchant services. If this is something you're interested in, you can also check out small business tax software to help you file taxes for your business.If you're interested in opening a business checking account, here is the documentation you'll need to apply:The top banks for immigrants and non-U.S. citizens allow you to provide a foreign passport or Matricula Consular as personal identification if you don't have a U.S. ID to open a bank account. Keep in mind that opening a business bank account online may require additional authorization forms. For example, if there are multiple business owners, you might need to fill out an authorization form since you're not verifying your identity in person.Choosing to open a business checking account with a credit union instead of a bank can help both you and your community. Credit unions are member-owned, which means any profits credit unions make go back to you in the form of lower monthly service fees, better handling of cash deposits, and more permissive transaction limits.Because credit unions limit who can join, they can more easily help specific communities through better loans, interest rates, and programs. Many credit unions are community development financial institutions or minority depository institutions, like Black-owned credit unions; both CDFIs and MDIs help underserved communities have access to banking services that might otherwise be unavailable to them.That being said, credit unions aren't right for everyone. The best banks could potentially offer a greater range of services than a local credit union. Additionally, many credit unions require you to open a savings account with them and keep a small amount of money in it as part of membership, which could be frustrating if you're only interested in opening one account with a credit union. Credit unions might also offer limited customer service hours and locations compared to big brick-and-mortar banks.To learn more about what makes a good account and how to choose the best fit, four experts weighed in.Our experts focused on what will make a business checking account the most useful, including low fees, transaction limits, branch locations, and more. Here's what they had to say about finding an account. (Some text may be lightly edited for clarity.)How can someone choose the business checking account that's right for them?Tania Brown, CFP® professional and vice president of coaching strategy at OfColor:\"Consider how you will use the bank account, and what features the account needs to have for you to run your business with ease. Here are a few examples of questions to think about:\"How much is your average account balance? If you are new and broke, you may not see the benefits of a business checking account with free services for balances over $100k.\"What types of transactions do you do the most? Do you write a lot of checks or do a lot of wire transfers? Whatever transactions you do the most, you want to make sure you choose a bank that will charge the least (preferably nothing) for these services.\"Do you want to be able to integrate your accounting software with your bank? If you, check your accounting software program to see how easily the program integrates with your potential bank.\"Roger Ma, CFP® professional and author of \"Work Your Money, Not Your Life\":\"Someone may want to consider whether they value having a physical branch nearby. If so, they may prefer to use a brick-and-mortar bank instead of an online bank. In addition, someone should also consider their business's other financial needs. Down the road, would they want to be able to work with the same bank to open a business credit card, open a line of credit, or get a business loan?\"What should someone look for in a brick-and-mortar bank?Mykail James, MBA, certified financial education instructor, BoujieBudgets.com:\"How accessible it is. Where are the branches? And if I am to go out of town or something, how accessible is my money to me?\"Sophia Acevedo, banking editor, Business Insider\"If you're more comfortable with a traditional bank experience, I would compare several nearby banks and see which accounts allow you to waive most fees. For example, with a business checking account, I would pay attention to monthly service fees, out-of-network ATM fees, and wire transfer fees.\"What should someone look for in an online bank?Tania Brown, CFP® professional:\"With an online bank, absolutely online customer service, because you do not have the advantage of walking inside and talking to a human being. How often are you able to get them? What are their hours?\"Mykail James, CFEI:\"What type of securities do they provide? Do they have two-factor identification? If it's an online bank, they should definitely have — at the bare minimum — two-factor authentication in how easy it is to change your passwords and things like that, because you want to be a little more hypersensitive about the cyber security for a strictly online bank.\"Why You Should Trust Us: How We Reviewed the Best Business Checking AccountsBusiness Insider's personal finance team reviewed over two dozen financial institutions before selecting our top picks for business checking accounts. We prioritized business checking accounts with no or low monthly service fees.Then, we looked at the minimum amount you need to open the account. We looked at how many free transactions you can make each month with an account. All our top choices let you make at least 125 monthly transactions, and many offer unlimited transactions.To get a rating for our top business checking accounts, we rate each product with a score from zero to five across several categories. For business checking accounts, those categories are minimum opening deposit requirements, monthly service fees, transaction limits, ATM networks and fees, customer support availability, mobile app ratings, ethics, security, miscellaneous features, and overdraft protection. Once each category has a score, we calculate the weight average to get the product's final star rating, which can land anywhere from one to five stars.See our bank account rating methodology to learn more about how we rate bank accounts.Sole proprietors may use their Social Security number instead of an EIN. You'll need an EIN to open a business account if you aren't the only person in charge of your business.If you're wondering what you should look for in a free business checking account, ask yourself whether you want to bank online or in person. Then figure out how many transactions your business will need to make each month and find a bank that allows that number of free transactions. You should also think about how much you'll need to deposit in cash every month and whether you'll need to make wire transfers.Yes, you can use a personal checking account for your business — but doing so comes with complications. Your personal name rather than your business name will appear on checks, and you may find it difficult to separate personal and business spending. It could also be tricky when tax season rolls around and you need to prove business-related purchases. If you are starting your own business, the IRS recommends getting a separate checking account specifically for managing business finances.Some online-based free business checking accounts allow you to make cash deposits at select retailers or ATMs. You may have to pay a fee (up to $4.95) for each deposit, though.A free business checking account differs from a traditional business checking account because it doesn't charge any monthly service fees.","articleSection":"Personal Finance, Banking, Checking Account","isAccessibleForFree":true,"hasPart":[{"@type":"WebPageElement","isAccessibleForFree":true,"cssSelector":".content-lock-content"}]} </script> <script type="application/ld+json"> {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I open a business bank account with an EIN only?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Sole proprietors may use their Social Security number instead of an EIN.

Credit unions are member-owned, which means any profits credit unions make go back to you in the form of lower monthly service fees, better handling of cash deposits, and more permissive transaction limits.</p><p>Because credit unions limit who can join, they can more easily help specific communities through better loans, interest rates, and programs. Many credit unions are community development financial institutions or minority depository institutions, like <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/personal-finance/banking/black-owned-banks-credit-unions" data-analytics-product-module="body_link" rel="">Black-owned credit unions</a>; both CDFIs and MDIs help underserved communities have access to banking services that might otherwise be unavailable to them.</p><p>That being said, credit unions aren't right for everyone.

Additionally, many credit unions require you to open a savings account with them and keep a small amount of money in it as part of membership, which could be frustrating if you're only interested in opening one account with a credit union. Credit unions might also offer limited customer service hours and locations compared to big brick-and-mortar banks.</p><h2 id="why-you-should-trust-us" data-toc-id="63817c4d-6f81-48b6-8c40-cc09b2c7efaa" data-toc-label="Why You Should Trust Us" class="toc-anchor">Why You Should Trust Us: How We Reviewed Business Checking Accounts</h2><p>To learn more about what makes a good account and how to choose the best fit, four experts weighed in.</p> <figure class="figure image-figure-image " data-type="img" data-e2e-name="image-figure-image" data-media-container="image" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject"> <div class="lazy-holder " style="padding-top: calc(100% * 433 / 1200)"> <meta itemprop="contentUrl" content="https://i.insider.com/65f30d7d3037f8e81750540e"> <img class="lazy-image " src="data:image/svg+xml,%3C%3Fxml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'%3F%3E%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='1' height='1'/%3E" data-content-type="image/png" data-srcs="{"https://i.insider.com/65f30d7d3037f8e81750540e":{"contentType":"image/png","aspectRatioW":1200,"aspectRatioH":433}}" alt="PFI Banking Expert Panel (updated Mar 2024); (from left to right) Tania Brown; Roger Ma; Sophia Acevedo; Mykail James"> </div> <span class="image-source-only "> <span class="image-source headline-regular" data-e2e-name="image-source" itemprop="creditText"> BI </span> </span> </figure> <p>Our experts focused on what will make a business checking account the most useful, including low fees, transaction limits, branch locations, and more.

We prioritized business checking accounts with no or low monthly service fees.</p><p>Then, we looked at the minimum amount you need to open the account. We looked at how many free transactions you can make each month with an account. All our top choices let you make at least 125 monthly transactions, and many offer unlimited transactions.</p><p>To get a rating for our top business checking accounts, we rate each product with a score from zero to five across several categories. For business checking accounts, those categories are minimum opening deposit requirements, monthly service fees, transaction limits, ATM networks and fees, customer support availability, mobile app ratings, ethics, security, miscellaneous features, and overdraft protection. Once each category has a score, we calculate the weight average to get the product's final star rating, which can land anywhere from one to five stars.</p><p>See our <a target="_blank" rel="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/personal-finance/banking/methodology" data-analytics-product-module="body_link">bank account rating methodology</a> to learn more about how we rate bank accounts.</p><h2 id="faqs" data-toc-id="4681f5b2-e039-4dbb-b8f2-a0bd1569fd37" data-toc-label="FAQs" class="toc-anchor">Business Checking Account FAQs</h2> <div class="collapsable-faq collapsable-faq-dropdown" data-parent-index="" data-component-type="collapsable-faq" data-root-margin="0px 0px 100% 0px"> <div class="collapsable-faq-dropdown_header"> <span class="collapsable-faq-dropdown_text headline-semibold faq-question"> Can I open a business bank account with an EIN only? </span> <span class="collapsable-faq-dropdown_chevron"> <svg class="svg-icon chevron-icon " data-chevron-icon="" role="img" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="1em" height="1em" viewBox="0 0 14.4 8.4" id="chevron-icon"> <title>Chevron icon</title> <desc>It indicates an expandable section or menu, or sometimes previous / next navigation options.</desc> <path class="chevron" fill="none" stroke="#76767a" stroke-linecap="square" d="M.7.7l6.5 7 6.5-7"></path> </svg> </span> </div> <div class="collapsable-faq-dropdown_wrap"> <div class="collapsable-faq-dropdown_content"> <p class="faq-answer">Sole proprietors may use their Social Security number instead of an EIN.
