Overview

A Brex business account is a cash management account offered by Brex Treasury, a FINRA-registered broker-dealer. While it’s not a bank account, you can use your business account to deposit checks, manage spend, and send or receive payments via ACH, check, and wire. The Brex business account lets you choose how your money is stored. Elect to keep your deposits in our partner banks with up to $6M in FDIC insurance or invest your funds in a government money market fund — or any combination of these options. You’ll always have access to your funds and can update your allocation preferences anytime. No matter how you choose to store your funds, your Brex account gives you unlimited corporate credit cards for secure, convenient spending. The cards are automatically paid daily like a debit card — while giving you cash back on USD card spend at US merchants, and helping you build your business credit. Note: Unlike debit cards, Brex cards cannot be used to make cash deposits or ATM withdrawals.


Brex business account sign-on bonus

Whether you have a Brex business account from the day you sign up or add one to your account later, you’ll be eligible for our sign-on bonus starting the day the business account opens. The sign-on bonus offers you 10,000 points when you spend $3,000 on your Brex card within three months of your Brex business account being opened. You can view how much longer you have left to meet these qualifications and earn the points in your Brex dashboard under Rewards > Marketplace > View details. Once your company has surpassed the spend requirements for your rewards bonus, please allow 7-10 business days for the points to be added to your Brex account.

You can change the allocation strategy at any time.


History

The Brex business account was formerly referred to as a “Brex Cash account.” This product has been renamed “Brex business account” to better reflect the services and features provided. If you already had a Brex Cash account, nothing in your account has changed. You can access your account as you would normally on the Brex dashboard under Brex business account.
