Question
I cannot seem to find a business checking account to allow us to store our business funds and merchant processing services. Our 3 co-founders live in separate states, so some banks are having issues since we aren't all present for account creation. Surely we aren't the only team in this situation.
Answer
I would definitely suggest Silicon Valley Bank. You can take care of most of it remotely, and it's 100% startup friendly. Plus, it's going to be the best bank to have if you ever raise money.
Actually, Stripe is launching a new program where they help startups incorporate, do all the initial paperwork and open up an account for $500. https://stripe.com/atlas
