Zeller's Business Savings Account Helps Manage Poor Cash Flow & Cash Reserves

By moving funds into a business savings account, you can contribute to building your businesses' resilience. These extra funds may come in handy when your customers are late to pay you, when your overheads increase, or during seasonal fluctuations. Having some extra funds to see you through these leaner times will help give your business more stability. If you’d like to help safeguard your business against unexpected events, it’s very important that you have a cash reserve & expense management tools such as Zeller's Corporate Cards. Adding funds regularly to a company savings account will help build a buffer that your business can use through unforeseen expenses.

Help Avoid Tax Stress & Improve Your Position to Borrow For Your Business

One great way of managing funds for not yet paid tax obligations is to put them into an interest-earning business account before you need to pay the tax office. Not only will you have set aside cash to meet your tax obligations, but you will also have earned interest on it. When ascertaining your credit rating, a lender might assess your cash flow and your cash on hand. Having a business saver account that you regularly contribute to can therefore assist in providing important context to a lender, and potentially improve your position to borrow funds.
