Why should I open a business account with TD Bank?

If your business is based in a state with a TD Bank, you’ll enjoy:

• Assistance with cash management. If you opt in to TD Bank‘s Treasury Management Services, you can get help managing receivables and payables such as sending bills and payroll.
• Online accounting. Small business owners can now use TD’s integrated payment and accounting system to send invoices and receive faster payments.
• Account options can grow with your business. Since its product offerings are tiered, you can upgrade to more sophisticated offerings with better perks as your revenue increases.
• Expanded hours offer easier access. Exact hours are location-specific, but most offer extended hours and are open Saturdays and Sundays.

What should I look out for?

Like any bank, TD Bank has its drawbacks. Before opening your business accounts, be consider:

• Hefty maintenance fees. Most of its checking and savings accounts require a large balance to waive the monthly fee. And for some accounts, there’s not an option to waive fees at all.
• Limited national presence. If you’re planning on expanding to other states, make sure your long term business plan aligns with what TD can offer.
• Transaction fees add up quickly. While you can depend on a fair amount of free deposits and payments each statement cycle, the charges can add up quickly after you hit the threshold.
