Credit unions are typically not-for-profit organizations, so they often have lower fees and better interest rates than banks. Your money is also safe at a credit union: Deposits are insured by the National Credit Union Administration up to $250,000 per account.
Credit unions like Patelco are also member-owned, so they tend to offer more personalized service and support. Patelco offers a wide range of small business accounts and services, including business checking and savings accounts, credit cards, overdraft protection and merchant services.
It’s important to consider your business needs and budget before you open your small business account.
Some things you should consider:
A business account can lend credibility to your small business and opens your small business up to greater investment opportunities. It may also offer liability protection and make financial transactions easier. Finally, a separate business account can make it easier to manage your business finances and accounting.
Here’s some of the information we’ll ask for:
We’ll also need additional documents based on the type of business you own. We’ll provide the list when you meet with Virtual Branch.
We’ve created an easy to follow checklist that outlines what an individual must have in order to establish a business membership with Patelco.
1 APY=Annual Percentage Yield. Rates are effective as of 12/01/2023 and are subject to change before or after account opening without notice. Rates vary by tier and apply to the full balance.
The following variable interest rates will apply to your account balance: 4.50% APY on balances of $250,000.00 or greater, 4.00% APY on balances between $100,000.00 and $249,999.99, 3.51% APY on balances between $50,000.00 and $99,999.99, 3.00% APY on balances up to $49,999.99.
In order to attain higher interest rates the account must meet the eligibility requirements, that is a Patelco checking account (opened under the same Member Number). If the account fails to meet eligibility, the lower interest rate of 0.05% will be defaulted for that month.
