An Oxygen business account helps first-time entrepreneurs and small business owners hold, access, and manage the money made directly from their businesses.

Oxygen personal accounts help individuals hold, access, and manage their personal funds.

You shouldn't use your personal account for business-related purposes because you risk commingling funds, not accurately tracking deductible expenses, and potentially complicating your tax obligations.

We recommend using a business account to ensure you are in the best position to file your business taxes and stay in a good position with the IRS. In addition, a business deposit account usually is required for any type of business financing.

Oxygen’s cash withdrawal limits vary based on the type of account:

Out-of-network and International fees apply. Third-party fees may apply.

At Oxygen, we focus our services on helping first-time entrepreneurs and small business owners succeed. Our products are designed to assist you with the daily needs and challenges of operating a small business.
​
Depending on what type of business that is, you will be required to provide some information about your business during the application process for an Oxygen business account.
​
For instance, sole proprietorships require your name, physical address, date of birth, and Social Security number. Other types of business legal entities require the business name and address, your taxpayer identification number, and proof that the business exists.
​

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens a Business Account. What this means for you: When you open a Business Account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see a copy of your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

There are several documents that might be required to open your business account, including:

To open an Oxygen business account, you must reside and operate your business in the U.S. We do not allow P.O. Box addresses at this time.

We are also working to accept international business accounts in the future.

There are some types of businesses Oxygen does not support, including:

Yes, we value working with nonprofits and will review these applications on a case-by-case basis. All requested documentation is required for review.

Yes, you will be asked to scan your government-issued passport, driver's license or ID during the application process.

The age of your business does not matter as long as it is an active business in good standing with your Secretary Of State registry.

A business description tells us what your company does, the purpose of your business, and what makes your business unique.

A certificate of good standing is issued by your registered Secretary of State office. It shows that your business is active and in good standing with no outstanding fees owed.

Contact your registered Secretary of State office for more information.

We may ask you for your SSN during the application process. Your SSN is used to comply with “Know Your Customer” U.S. regulatory requirements. Your SSN will not be used to underwrite your account.

An EIN is a 9-digit number (also referred to as a Federal Tax Identification Number) issued by the IRS and used to uniquely identify legal business entities operating in the United States. Think of it as an SSN for your business.

During the application process, we may ask for proof of your EIN document(s).

However, if you’ve recently registered with the IRS, there can be a delay before you receive your EIN document(s) by mail. If you have not yet received your EIN document(s) in the mail, then a clear screenshot of your IRS letter online should suffice.

If your business does not have a company website, you can enter your social media page URL or a parked website, if you are still working to build one.

Yes, you must use the same email address for both your personal and business accounts.

Once your Oxygen business account has been fully approved, you may start using it immediately.

If you’re currently only registered as a sole proprietor and would like to form a business, such as an LLC, S Corp, or C Corp, start by selecting “New business” within the Oxygen App or website.

Please note that there are fees involved in forming an LLC or corporation. These fees consist of a $199.20 formation fee, along with an additional state filing fee that varies depending on your state of residence.

You have the option to pay these formation fees either by deducting them from your Oxygen personal account or by using an external credit or debit card.

We strongly advise consulting with a CPA, tax advisor or attorney to determine whether creating an LLC or corporation aligns with your specific needs and circumstances. They can provide you with expert guidance tailored to your situation.

Oxygen has formed a partnership with CorpNet to provide valuable assistance to those who are seeking to incorporate their businesses.

How the Oxygen–CorpNet collaboration works:

There are several benefits to opening your business (LLC/S Corp/C Corp) with Oxygen:

First, download the Oxygen mobile app and create a login by providing your email address and password.

If you’re applying for a new LLC/S Corp/C Corp, our team will need your EIN for the formation documents. If your LLC/S Corp/C Corp application is rejected for any reason, we will refund your LLC/S Corp/C Corp formation and state filing fees within 3–5 days after review.

Once you have created your login, you’ll be asked to scan your ID and agree to the terms and conditions, including the agreements and summary of fees.

Next, you will be asked to provide the location of your business, the industry, and your role in the business. You may also be asked to provide supporting documentation depending on the business entity.

You should be notified of the outcome of your application for existing businesses within five business days. For LLC formations, it can take between 2-4 weeks. If you have any questions or concerns about the outcome of your application, please contact your state government entity.
