Startup business account FAQs
- Startup business accounts are aimed at new businesses. They help startups manage their finances by separating business transactions from personal ones. Startup business accounts include features like expense tracking, invoicing, and integrations with accounting software, which are essential for managing the unique financial needs of a new business.
- If you’re choosing a business account for your startup, here’s what to look out for:
- Monthly fees: look for an account with affordable monthly fees (especially important for startups with limited budgets)
- Transaction limits: make sure the account offers the right transaction limits for your business activities
- Features and integrations: evaluate the features offered, such as expense tracking, invoicing, and integrations with other business tools
- Accessibility: consider the ease of accessing your account, both online and through mobile apps
- Customer support: reliable customer support can be crucial for resolving issues quickly
- For startups, the Revolut Business Basic or Grow plans are ideal choices:
- Basic Plan: starts at €0 per month, and includes essential features to get your startup off the ground.
- Grow Plan: starts at €19 per month, paid annually. It includes all Basic plan features, plus increased transfer allowances, bulk payments, Savings, Analytics, API access, and more.
- A startup is typically a newly established business focused on rapid growth and scalability, often in the tech or innovation sectors. Startups usually aim to disrupt markets with new products or services. Small businesses, on the other hand, are generally more established, with a stable customer base and steady growth. Small businesses often operate in traditional industries, and focus on maintaining consistent operations rather than rapid expansion.
