On the legal side, having a separate business banking account protects your personal assets. Many small business owners form a limited liability company (LLC) or corporation to shield personal assets from unexpected changes in the business.

In order to keep that personal liability protection, you need to properly maintain your LLC or corporation, including drawing a clear line between your business and personal finances. By opening a business bank account, you're making sure that your business is its own entity.

Plus, when it comes to paying taxes, a business account makes it easier to stay on top of your books when tax time rolls around. You'll save time in tracking your spending and receipts, while making sure you take advantage of all your business deductions.
