Transformative banking for ambitious entrepreneurs

Simplifying the outdated and complex

Because banking should do more

Money flows through every decision entrepreneurs make when they start, and scale, their businesses. So Mercury was founded with the idea of making banking 1 better for ambitious endeavors. We spent our first five years turning the banking experience into less of an obstacle and more of a catalyst.

One extraordinary product, many everyday uses

But we didn’t stop with just providing access to checking and savings accounts, credit and debit cards 2. With Mercury, banking has evolved into the nucleus of your financial operations. The source-of-truth for your money movement, where you can quickly and easily make payments, send invoices, pay bills, monitor spend, and understand your cash flow. All from one place. It's banking as it should be.

Backed by the best

We’re backed by top-tier venture capitalists, angel investors, and 2,500+ community members.
