Business Checking: SinglePoint Operating Accounts for American Companies

SinglePoint business checking delivers four operating-account tiers engineered for American business payment volume — Silver, Gold, Platinum and Analysis. Every tier carries FDIC coverage, posts intraday balance updates, connects to the SinglePoint treasury sweep and exports native BAI2/MT940 to your ERP.

Operating accounts are the plumbing underneath every wire, ACH batch and supplier payment. SinglePoint checking is priced by usage, not retail convention — per-transaction fees, earnings credit offset, consolidated analysis billing and sub-account architecture come standard. Deposit insurance is administered by the FDIC.

Four SinglePoint Business Checking Tiers

Match the tier to your monthly transaction volume and average ledger balance. Upgrading or downgrading between SinglePoint tiers is a single administrative change — account numbers, payment templates and user permissions all transfer.

Silver Business Checking

The SinglePoint entry tier for sole proprietors, LLCs and early-stage companies. Up to 150 included transactions per month, $10 USD monthly maintenance fee (waived with $5,000 USD average collected balance), unlimited in-network ATM access across 4,500+ U.S. Bank locations. Includes SinglePoint mobile banking, bill pay and ACH debit origination up to $10,000 USD per day.

Gold Business Checking

For established small businesses running payroll and recurring supplier AP. Up to 500 included transactions per month, $25 USD monthly fee (waived at $20,000 USD balance), includes 2 domestic Fedwires per month at no additional charge. Supports dual-control approval on wires above $10,000 USD and connects to the SinglePoint positive pay workbench.

Platinum Business Checking

Built for middle-market operators processing 1,000+ monthly items. No cap on transactions with per-item fees at Platinum rates, $75 USD monthly fee waived at $75,000 USD balance. Includes sub-account architecture (up to 25 sub-accounts per parent), multi-currency checking sub-accounts in 9 currencies and priority SinglePoint service centre routing.

Analysis Business Checking

The enterprise SinglePoint operating account. No monthly fee — instead a monthly analysis statement where earnings credit from collected balances offsets itemised service charges on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Consolidated billing across all accounts in the legal entity structure, unlimited sub-accounts, and direct integration with the SinglePoint custom report builder.

How SinglePoint Checking Actually Works in Operations

Fee mechanics, earnings credit maths, sub-account architecture and the sweep handshake with SinglePoint savings.

Per-Transaction Fees and Included Items

Every SinglePoint tier defines an included item count before per-item pricing begins. A "transaction" in SinglePoint terminology covers paper cheques paid, deposit items processed, ACH debits, ACH credits, in-person teller transactions and internal transfers. Electronic items (mobile deposits, online transfers) typically price lower than paper items. Domestic wires price separately from the item count.

On Platinum and Analysis accounts, the line-item schedule breaks out pricing by category: $0.12 USD per ACH credit, $0.15 USD per ACH debit, $0.22 USD per deposited cheque item, $15 USD per outgoing Fedwire, $45 USD per outgoing SWIFT. All rates appear on your SinglePoint monthly analysis statement.

Earnings Credit Rate (ECR) Mechanics

On Analysis Business Checking, collected balances (not ledger balances — only funds that have cleared Fed float) earn a monthly Earnings Credit Rate reset the first business day of each month. The SinglePoint ECR tracks the prior-month 90-day Treasury bill average less a statutory reserve requirement factor applied to transaction-account balances under Federal Reserve reserve requirements.

Earnings credit is credited — not paid — against service fees inside the monthly analysis statement. Dollars of credit offset dollars of fees. Any unused earnings credit does not roll forward to subsequent months in the default SinglePoint setup, but enterprise clients can negotiate rolling credit windows through their U.S. Bank Relationship Manager.

Sub-Account Architecture for Multi-Entity Operators

Platinum and Analysis SinglePoint accounts support up to 25 (Platinum) or unlimited (Analysis) sub-accounts beneath a single parent DDA. Sub-accounts share the parent's routing and account number for Fed reporting but maintain independent ledger balances, independent transaction history and independent reporting scope inside SinglePoint.

Common structures: one sub-account per legal entity in a consolidated group, one per department (marketing, R&D, operations), one per project, or one per currency. Sub-accounts roll up to the parent for the nightly SinglePoint treasury sweep, which is how multi-entity operators achieve single-concentration cash management without unwinding the legal structure.

Multi-Currency SinglePoint Checking and the Sweep Handshake

How SinglePoint checking ties to FX settlement and overnight sweep into money market.

Account Snapshot

  • SinglePoint multi-currency sub-accounts support USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, MXN, JPY, AUD, CHF, CNY.
  • FX conversion on SinglePoint settles T+0 for majors, T+1 for minors, at institutional spreads.
  • Overnight sweep targets a configurable minimum collected balance, excess moves to SinglePoint business money market.
  • FDIC coverage: $250,000 USD per depositor, per ownership category, per insured bank.
  • Sub-accounts do not each receive separate FDIC coverage — the parent DDA is the insured account of record.

Multi-Currency Checking Inside SinglePoint

Import and export operators holding foreign-denominated receivables can open EUR, GBP or MXN sub-accounts beneath a Platinum or Analysis parent. Incoming SWIFT wires in the foreign currency settle directly into the currency sub-account with no forced conversion. Convert on your own schedule inside SinglePoint FX.

Overnight Sweep Handshake

Configure a target collected balance on your SinglePoint checking. At end-of-day Fed close, balances above the target sweep to a linked SinglePoint business money market. Balances below trigger an intra-bank reverse sweep. The sweep calculation runs nightly and appears on the next day's SinglePoint dashboard.

Zero-Balance Account Integration

Enterprise Analysis clients pair checking with Zero-Balance Accounts (ZBA) for automated cash concentration. Disbursement accounts fund from the concentration account on demand. Deposit accounts sweep up to concentration nightly. The full ZBA structure lives inside SinglePoint with no external cash-management overlay required.

The SinglePoint operating account is the anchor for everything else — without a checking account, there is no ACH origination, no wire out, no card settlement, no loan payment. Choosing the right tier is less about the monthly fee and more about the per-item pricing underneath, the earnings credit recovery of analysis billing, and whether sub-accounts or multi-currency settlement materially change how your treasury team reconciles month-end. Discuss tier selection with your U.S. Bank Relationship Manager before opening — the $150 USD/month difference between Gold and Platinum can be worth $30,000 USD annually when 2,000 monthly items drop from Gold overage pricing to Platinum schedule rates.
