FAQs about High-Yield Business Checking Accounts
Can I earn interest with a business bank account?
There is only one easy requirement. Use your Business Debit Mastercard® 10 or more times a month to earn the stated interest. With our High-Yield Business Checking Account, there are no complicated rules or high fees to earn interest.
To qualify for $0 monthly fees, you need to maintain an average daily balance of $10,000 or more in your High-Yield Business Checking Account.
If you have any questions about our monthly service fees, feel free to reach out to a member representative. We’re happy to help.
The main difference between credit unions and traditional banks is that credit unions are not-for-profit. This means that we exist to serve our communities in Houston, TX, and not to spin a profit for shareholders. Credit unions also tend to offer lower loan rates, higher earnings on deposits, fewer fees, and better customer service than traditional banks.
Regardless of the type of business you own, a credit union could help you navigate what financing products are the best fit for your business needs and help you secure better offers.
The documents you need for your High-Yield Checking Account depend on your business type. Here's what you'll need as a sole proprietor:
- Your SSN or EIN of the Business Name.
- Assumed Name Certificate (DBA) filed in the County where the business is located (if applicable) Must be 90 days old, exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis or for existing members.
