Business bank account SMB

If you’ve just started a new business, one essential step is opening a business bank account. A Gigzter business bank account helps small business owners manage finances, payments, and invoicing, and simplify tax filing.

If you are new to owning a business, you might need to figure out exactly what to expect when you open a new business bank account. Knowing the information and documents required in advance can streamline the process of getting it set up.

Why open a business bank account?

It makes tracking your business’s cash flow easier, so you have a bottom-line accounting of revenue and expenses. It can be very challenging to do your taxes at year-end if you have co-mingled your personal finances with those of your business.

Business bank accounts make it easier for you to give someone else — like a business partner or bookkeeper — access to your transactions. An extra benefit of Gigzter’s business bank account is that it comes with many tools (like built-in payment acceptance) not available on consumer accounts that make running your business easier daily. 

Establishing a business bank account can also help you build your business’s credit profile.
