If you are self-employed, here is a little joy at last: an account with all the same perks and conditions as everyone else
What are the terms and conditions? There are four:
-
Deposit a minimum of €800/month into your account
Since it is a Business Account it will have to be business income, in other words, paid by cheque, transfer, remittance, POS terminal or Bizum. Cash deposits are not taken into account but the sum of the total deposits is valid.
-
Make 3 payments per quarter using your card
Yes, that's right, per quarter and with no minimum amount.
-
Have three bills debited from your account each quarter
They do not need to have different issuers or take place during the same month. It can be one bill every month or, for example, three bills in one month and none the next two months.
-
Do not take too long to deposit your first income
Once you open an Business Account, the first deposits must be a minimum of €800/month for the next three months. If, after that time, you do not deposit the agreed income, you will lose the benefits associated with the Business 5% Account.
