Read the full methodologyDanske Bank provides business banking options for companies of all sizes, as well as specialised accounts for charities and community organisations. It offers business current accounts, savings accounts, business credit and debit cards, forex and business finance.
As well as its online banking platform District, Danske Bank also has business centres to handle small and medium-sized businesses, and a corporate team dedicated to large businesses.
District is Danske Bank’s online business banking platform that lets business customers access and manage their business accounts, including viewing transactions and making payments and transfers. You can also use District to transfer your invoices and files into your accounting software program and contact the bank directly.
Note that this offers 2 years of free business banking (no transaction, maintenance or service fees). Then normal fees apply.
This is an instant access savings account that lets you earn interest on your surplus cash while retaining access to it whenever you need it. Interest is calculated daily and applied on a quarterly basis, and you can access the funds in the account at any time using online banking. The account has a minimum balance of £1, with no maximum balance limits.
The Danske fixed term savings account lets you invest from £5,000 for a variety of fixed terms, provided you also maintain a Danske business current account or investment account. Interest is paid on maturity, and the funds can also only be withdrawn once the term is completed.
You can get a fixed term deposit for a period of 1 month up to a maximum of 5 years.

Companies of all sizes can bank with Danske Bank, but its offerings are probably more skewed towards larger businesses. The Denmark-headquartered bank doesn’t operate a branch network in Great Britain, although it does have dedicated business support telephone lines, and it operates a specialist business banking online platform called District. However, there is a £10 monthly fee for large business customers to access District, on top of the £7 monthly account fee and other transaction charges.
