Your Business Bank Account Is When You Started
Business bank account must have the exact State and Federal filed name
The day your business bank account is established marks the official start of your business, rather than the day you filed for it. To open an account, choose a preferred bank and reach out to them either through a call or email. Inquire about their specific requirements for opening a business checking account. Typically, banks will ask for a copy of your business certificate from the secretary of state, an IRS document containing your EIN number, and occasionally your articles of incorporation.

Banking Name
To establish a positive Bank Credit, the first crucial step is to ensure that your business name and mailing address on your business bank account(s) match exactly with the information on your legal paperwork filed with the State. It is also important for it to match with the name and address on any Federal EIN paperwork. If there is a discrepancy, it is essential to get it corrected immediately.
Banking History
When assessing the age of your business, most lenders consider the date of opening your business banking account rather than the date on your Incorporation, LLC, or EIN paperwork. The date of filing paperwork is not relevant to lenders or business credit agencies. The starting point for all business lending and credit is the day you open your business bank account.
Your business banking history plays a vital role in securing larger business loans. Lenders examine the duration of your relationship with the bank to assess your borrowing potential. The longer your business banking history, the greater your ability to secure loans.
Cautionary Item - Online Only Business Banking
May Impact Funding Approvals - Lenders Can't Access Required Banking Details
As the popularity of online-only banking continues to soar, one major drawback is the slower rate at which technological advancements are implemented. This can result in complications when lenders are unable to instantly access the necessary data for your business banking, potentially leading to loan rejections. Common causes include failures to connect with services like "Plaid," unprocessed ACH payments, failed E-checks, and insufficient information from Bank Ratings or Bank Verifications.
Consequently, although utilizing an online-only business bank account may appear convenient and cost-effective, it significantly heightens the chances of loan declination for your business. It is highly recommended that if you have an account with any of these online-only banks (Lili, Bluevine, Found, Mercury, Oxygen, Novo, Grasshopper, Axos, Relay, or LiveOak), you also maintain a business account with a traditional brick-and-mortar bank.g declined because you neglected to do so.
