Zero Balance Account

A Zero Balance Account helps businesses manage multiple operating accounts efficiently by linking them to a central master account. Each sub-account (such as payroll, expenses, or departmental accounts) automatically draws funds from the master account to cover payments and returns excess funds back at the end of the day, keeping the sub-account balance at zero. This structure simplifies reconciliation, centralizes cash control, and prevents idle balances across multiple accounts.

Sweep Account

A sweep account automatically transfers excess funds from your business checking account into an interest-bearing or investment account at the end of each business day, and moves the funds back as needed. This ensures your money is always working for you — earning returns when idle and maintaining enough liquidity to cover daily operating expenses.

Cash Concentration Account

A cash concentration account automatically consolidates funds from multiple accounts — whether across departments, branches, or even different banks — into one central master account. This gives your business a clear, centralized view of available cash, simplifies transfers, and improves control over liquidity, investments, and borrowing decisions.

With our Cash Allocation Manager for business, you can divide your earnings into multiple savings accounts in predetermined percentages, making sure every dollar goes to the right place. This customizable tool helps to streamline your banking processes and ensures you don’t have to micromanage your accounts, giving you one less thing to worry about as you run your business. It’s like an autopilot for saving money.
