[37]
on what bank to go through of course you
[40]
can go through your local bank
[41]
but these are six banks that i recommend
[45]
that i do business with and some of them
[48]
are pretty easy
[49]
to qualify for if you're a new business
[53]
owner
[54]
sometimes banks deny new business owners
[57]
so
[58]
that's what i'm going to be covering on
[59]
this video
[62]
especially certain specialty businesses
[65]
get denied
[66]
a business checking account so a couple
[69]
of these
[70]
i'm going to be going over the data
[71]
points and which ones allow certain
[74]
types of businesses
[75]
and which ones do not so before i get
[79]

[93]
and helps all the content help everybody
[96]
else out in the community
[98]
as entrepreneurs so without further ado
[101]
let's get into it the first one as you
[105]
can see here i have
[106]
is navy federal credit union
[110]
i do a lot of banking with them i own
[112]
multiple businesses
[114]
and have a couple of my businesses have
[118]
business checking accounts with navy
[120]
federal as well as personal banking
[122]
i bank with them the thing with navy
[125]
federal though is you have to be either
[128]
in the military or you're a veteran
[133]
or somebody in your family your parent
[135]
your grandparents
[136]
somebody in your family had to have
[138]
served
[140]
in the military to be able to get a
[143]
membership
[144]
with navy federal credit union a lot of
[147]
people
[148]
try to do shortcuts and get in to navy
[151]
federal credit union
[152]
but i'll tell you they are getting
[154]
strict and closing down accounts
[157]
personal accounts for people that
[161]
have no way of verifying that they have
[164]
a family member or military affiliation
[168]
so make sure that if you want to get a
[171]
navy federal credit union
[172]
personal account or business account you
[175]
have to first get the personal account
[177]
before you can establish the
[179]
business account
[183]
and like i said you have to
[186]
have a personal account before you can
[188]
even get a business uh checking account
[190]
with navy federal
[191]
but they are probably in my opinion the
[193]
best bank they give the most generous
[195]
credit card limits on the personal and
[198]
business side
[199]
they are a personal guarantee but if you
[203]
have decent credit
[204]
then you know you may get approved for a
[207]
decent
[208]
credit limit people in the 600s you
[212]
know are getting 10 20 000 credit limits
[215]
on credit card approvals so like i said
[218]
make sure that you can qualify some way
[220]
for a membership if you don't already
[222]
have a navy federal
[223]
uh personal account to be able to get a
[226]
membership
[227]
so that's the main requirement is you
[231]
have to be a veteran or have a family
[234]
member
[235]
that is a veteran or served in the
[238]
military so
[240]
they offer business checking and savings
[243]
they also offer business credit cards
[246]
and business loans
[248]
i can't really talk too much about the
[249]
business loan side because i haven't
[251]
done that yet
[253]
but i have done the business credit
[256]
cards
[257]
and i have a business two business
[259]
checking accounts and two business
[261]
savings accounts
[263]
so some of you guys may want to know
[265]
about the credit card
[266]
offer they offer business businesses
[269]
um it's zero annual fee
[272]
the prime rate as low as 5.9
[277]
which is great and you get
[280]
one point per dollar spent no foreign
[284]
transaction fees great for travel
[285]
expenses
[286]
no earnings cap multiple card holders
[289]
available
[289]
and you can pick either mastercard or
[292]
visa
[294]
so you can start redeeming a thousand
[296]
points for cash traveling
[298]
gif uh get traveling and gift cards
[301]
rewards up to
[302]
one percent return on each dollar spent
[307]
so that's just a little overview on the
[311]
business credit card because once you
[313]
get the
[314]
business checking account and savings
[316]
account set up
[318]
and you establish that business
[320]
relationship with
[321]
uh navy federal they are
[324]
pretty generous when it comes to limits
[326]
and you don't really need to have even a
[328]
750 or 800 fico score
[331]
i've seen a lot of people get approved
[332]
with being in the 600s even the low 600s
[337]
so um but always you know make sure you
[339]
clean up your credit if you're trying to
[341]
get you know any type of
[342]
personal or business credit
[346]
so the they have a couple different
[348]
checking and savings
[349]
options so they got the business
[351]
checking
[353]
uh the first uh 39 electronic
[356]
transfer transactions included and then
[359]
25 25 cents per transaction afterwards
[364]
for each one no monthly service fee it's
[368]
best for new businesses
[370]
and best for limited uh cash flow
[372]
activity
[374]
and you can have up to two signers
[377]
business plus checking allows 50
[379]
non-electronic transfers
[381]
transactions included the monthly fee is
[385]
eight dollars
[387]
the business plus checking at navy
[388]
federal is best for
[390]
growing businesses multiple business
[392]
owners and steady banking activity and
[394]
then they have a more premium one
[397]
and um there's a service fee of zero to
[401]
twenty dollars it just depends on
[404]
you know your business and it's gonna be
[407]
you're not going to want to get this
[408]
premium checking account if you're a new
[410]
business
[411]
owner you know they're going to start
[413]
you off with the basic business checking
[416]
so if you can qualify i would
[420]
in my personal opinion these on these
[423]
banks
[423]
i would go through navy federal credit
[425]
union
[426]
um so that's navy federal
[430]
second best i would say in my opinion
[433]
and this is for
[434]
one you know those business owners or
[436]
new business owners that
[438]
are having a tough time getting approved
[440]
at other banks traditional banks
[442]
bank of america chase whoever it may be
[446]
you're getting denied maybe you had bad
[448]
check systems you know years ago
[451]
radius bank is actually um you can see
[455]
here on their website
[457]
sorry guys the screen's kind of messed
[459]
up on my recording but
[460]
um because every site is different but
[464]
they have nerd wallets best of awards
[467]
2021 best bank or credit union online
[470]
experience
[472]
so i've been banking with them for about
[473]
a year now
[475]
radius just got bought out by a
[479]
lending club which is a very big company
[482]
financial institution
[486]
and what's good about radius bank is
[490]
they give you
[490]
one percent rewards checking for
[493]
personal
[495]
so you want to set up a personal account
[497]
first
[499]
pretty much with any bank you want to
[501]
first establish your own personal
[502]
savings and
[504]
personal uh checking account
[507]
that's going to increase your odds for
[509]
approval for
[510]
business checking
[514]
and you can do everything online with
[516]
them they give
[518]
atm rebates so you can go
[521]
here and see that you know apply for a
[523]
small
[524]
business account they have the tailored
[528]
checking and the radius advantage i
[530]
would say just start with the
[532]
tailored checking and
[535]
um what's good about them is they also
[539]
offer the sba loans and
[541]
the ppp forgiveness
[545]
and they have several credit cards which
[547]
is
[548]
issued under elon financial
[553]
but like i said they are a great bank
[556]
in my opinion i've used them with a
[559]
couple of my businesses that i
[561]
actively use pretty much almost as my
[564]
primary bank
[565]
for my two businesses
[568]
and the application process is very
[570]
quick
[571]
it only takes a few minutes to
[575]
fill that business application and
[578]
upload your secretary of state
[580]
confirmation
[581]
of your llc or inc and then you upload
[584]
your irs letter
[586]
and that's pretty much it um you know so
[590]
next one is nbkc bank business
[595]
um i personally don't have experience
[599]
banking with them i set up a business
[602]
bank account about
[604]
nine or ten months ago with them but i
[606]
haven't used it so i can't really give
[608]
my input on it all i can say it was a
[611]
easy approval process when i applied it
[615]
was very easy to get um
[618]
the approvals actually the same day as
[620]
well
[621]
and there's no hidden fees no minimum
[625]
balance
[626]
no overdraft fees no
[630]
charge for stop payments and no fees for
[633]
domestic incoming wires
[637]
you know i'll have all the links in the
[639]
description below
[642]
so
[642]
[Music]
[645]
and they refund any atm fees up to
[646]
twelve dollars a month as well
[648]
with the business debt but um
[652]
as you guys may know from past videos
[655]
that i preach a lot
[656]
i really like credit unions for personal
[659]
and business because they tend to give
[661]
you
[663]
higher limits when it comes to
[666]
credit cards on personal and business
[668]
side
[670]
and they're more not driven by profit
[674]
because they're members own bank so
[679]
i definitely would suggest you know
[681]
credit union banks
[684]
even for business uh
[687]
they're just more generous and they tend
[689]
to be the customer services usually
[691]
outstanding with all these different
[693]
business credit unions so first tech
[697]
federal credit union um
[701]
they are a great bank but
[704]
they are i don't want to say
[706]
conservatives
[708]
you're not going to get approved for
[710]
even a
[711]
um i would say business credit card
[714]
or even personal credit card with them
[717]
unless you have good credit and they are
[719]
inquiry sensitive so make sure that you
[722]
have uh
[723]
you know not many inquiries on your
[726]
personal credit
[728]
um but their overall good bank
[732]
to research and check out i have account
[735]
with them
[735]
on the personal side
[739]
and business side as well but this is
[742]
again
[742]
i haven't done a whole lot of banking
[743]
with them on the business side so i
[745]
can't give you a full
[746]
review on them but they are a good bank
[749]
to
[749]
you know go through their customer
[751]
service are
[753]
you know second to none just like navy
[755]
federal
[757]
okay so i'll have the links in the
[759]
description below
[761]
again do your own research but um when
[764]
you're deciding
[766]
next is like chase chase right now is
[769]
offering
[770]
300 dollars when you open up a new
[773]
business
[774]
complete checking account for new chase
[777]
business checking customers with
[778]
qualifying activities
[781]
so what those qualifying activities are
[783]
i'm not sure
[785]
but everybody talks about chase so
[788]
that's why i want to put it in here
[790]
and although their sites kind of list
[792]
the same sites that i'm kind of listing
[794]
besides radius
[796]
and navy federal
[799]
but you put in your email address here
[801]
and then it will send you
[802]
the code and you can earn
[806]
300 i guess uh sign up bonus
[811]
i'm not gonna get into all that because
[813]
you guys know
[815]
chase everybody knows chase next one is
[818]
alliant credit union
[820]
about four or five months ago i applied
[823]
for a personal membership
[824]
and got a personal savings and
[829]
checking account and then i opened up a
[832]
business account uh
[834]
about a month later after that
[837]
on the personal side they tend to give
[840]
pretty decent credit limits starting
[842]
credit limits for
[843]
their credit cards
[847]
so and they also also offer
[852]
business loans as well so basically
[855]
they also have business credit card um
[858]
but you're gonna have to have really
[860]
good credit and they pull from
[862]
transunion
[863]
they are inquiry sensitive um
[867]
so when you're first starting off you're
[868]
gonna probably apply for the classic
[871]
uh master card because the maximum limit
[874]
for that
[874]
is ten thousand dollars
[877]
um so i just wanna kind of point out in
[879]
this video
[881]
that you guys really need to
[885]
build that business relationship up with
[887]
your
[888]
financial institution rather that be
[891]
navy federal radius
[895]
chase first tech alliance whoever it may
[898]
be
[899]
but especially like navy federal
[903]
and i would say alliant and first tech
[907]
those credit unions they like to see you
[910]
know personal
[911]
relationship with them that you're using
[914]
you know their personal side of products
[917]
and you're going to have better chances
[920]
to get approved for
[922]
you know business credit cards and high
[923]
limit credit cards
[926]
you know if you nurture that
[928]
relationship with these financial
[930]
institutions
[931]
so um i don't want to ramble on too much
[935]
i just wanted to tell you my personal
[937]
pick for
[940]
business bank accounts in 2021
[944]
my experiences and most of these banks
[947]
will be on other people's lists
[949]
as well but these are you know my
[952]
particular favorite ones with navy
[954]
federal being
[955]
my favorite and radius bank being my
[958]
second favorite
[959]
just because they're both very easy to
[962]
deal with and great customer service all
[964]
the way around
[965]
