We’re introducing fair, accessible financial services that connect directly with our sellers’ payments, helping them unlock instant access to their sales, automate their savings, and receive personalized financing offerings.
Square Banking doesn’t have any fees, credit checks, or a minimum balance. The company wants to make it easier for small businesses to start using their money without having to transfer it to a separate bank account first. Right now, Square offers an annuel percentage yield (APY) of 0.50% but that rate is only guaranteed through the end of 2021.
