Re: First business account

You can open a business checking just about anywhere. Make sure you read the account terms as some banks work better or worse depending on how many /types fo transactions you will be doing (IE My biz doesn't do a lot of cash/daily deposits, so I found a free one that works for me)

 

I started with a Chase Ink card when my LLC was only 5 days old. Took 2 weeks to get approved, but it did come through. ( I do not have a Chase checking account)

Re: First business account

Chase Ink approved for $5k as the business had no verifiable income. 

 

Credit Scores are high 700's low 800's. However, I don't know how much of a role it really played in getting approved / starting credit limit. $5k is actually really low for me on initial opening, so I suspect they just gave a minimal opening credit line. 

 

dbs?

I would start with Chase. They are a strong business bank, and they usually have a nice cash bonus for opening a business checking account.

I would go with NFCU if you are eligible for membership. The business application can be annoying but once I was approved it has all been seamless. FYI anything over 25K request will require additional details about your finances.
