Corporate Account

An instant access, sterling business current account for companies and contractors.

For business clients who need to carry out large numbers of transactions each month, the Cater Allen Corporate Account is a current account for business clients with full banking facilities, but which also benefits from the high service standards offered by Cater Allen Private Bank.

Your business clients will have their calls answered by a member of our UK-based, multi-skilled team. The person who answers the phone will be able to assist with any banking requirements across all of a client's accounts.

The Corporate Account offers full banking facilities, including Internet Banking where a client can see all accounts linked to him/her combined under a single log-in. Up to 200 day-to-day transactions are permitted per statement month without incurring a transaction fee, including transactions on the Cater Allen VISA Deferred-Debit card.

Any transactions made on a VISA Deferred-Debit card (excluding cash withdrawals) are not applied to the business' account until the statement date.  The minimum opening deposit is £5,000, with a minimum balance of £5,000 to be maintained in the account.

Please see the Corporate Account Factsheet and Non-Personal Terms and Conditions for more information.

Interest rates are variable, please see current available interest rates.
