Frequently asked questions
Can I get a business credit card with a new business or an EIN only?
Yes, many issuers accept new businesses and sole proprietors. Most bank cards still check your personal credit and ask you to personally guarantee the debt. Corporate cards such as Ramp or Brex skip the personal credit check but usually require a minimum cash balance in a business bank account.
What is a personal guarantee?
It is your promise to repay the card if the business cannot. Almost every small-business card from a bank requires one, so missed payments can hurt your personal credit. Cards with no personal guarantee look at your business bank balance and revenue instead.
Do business credit cards affect my personal credit?
Applying usually means a hard inquiry on your personal credit. Many issuers do not report normal business card activity to your personal credit report, but serious delinquencies can be reported. Check each issuer's terms.
How do I build business credit with a card?
Get an EIN, open a business bank account, register with Dun & Bradstreet (D-U-N-S number), and use a card or vendor account that reports to business credit bureaus. Pay on time or early every month. Over time this builds your business credit file separate from your personal one.
Is a business credit card better than a loan?
A card is good for everyday expenses and short-term cash flow, especially if you pay the balance in full. For large, long-term needs such as equipment, property or buying a business, an SBA or term loan usually costs much less than carrying a card balance.
Can I get a business credit card in Puerto Rico?
Yes. Banks in Puerto Rico such as Popular and FirstBank offer business cards, and some U.S. issuers accept businesses in Puerto Rico. Availability changes, so confirm on the issuer's site before you apply.
