Both business credit cards and corporate credit cards are similar because they are both a revolving source of funds you can use anywhere Visa®, MasterCard®, Discover, and American Express are accepted.

You get access to a pre-set credit limit that you can borrow against at any time. When you pay down the principal the credit becomes available to use over and over. Also, you can maintain a revolving balance on both business credit cards and corporate credit cards.

Easy Approval Net 30 Accounts

In today’s post we’re going to reveal five easy approval net 30 accounts that help you build business credit. Whether you’re a startup or existing business this post will provide you a jump start in the business credit building process.

Also, we have included a special bonus at the end of this post on how to add up to 8 trade lines to your business credit report in less than 30 days.

So, let’s get started.

What are Net 30 accounts?

A net 30 account is credit that’s extended to you from a company, that allows you to buy their products and services on credit and pay the invoice in 30 days. Net 30 accounts are also known as vendor credit, supplier credit and trade credit.

You probably see it all the time circulating on the internet stating you got to get net 30 accounts to start building business credit. Net 30 accounts from vendors and/or suppliers is just one of the types of credit that you can obtain as a startup, existing business or even a real estate investor.

Starting out, if you’re a brand-new company and have no credit file established you typically can expect a small credit line from $500 -$1k and some even start higher than that.

Many vendors do not require any personal guarantee or personal credit check so that’s why a lot of business owners like to start out with net 30 accounts because they don’t want to use their personal credit.

One of the things I want to share with you though is if you do have strong personal credit then consider leveraging it with business credit card funding on top of net 30 accounts. This will dramatically speed up the business credit building process.

How to Build Business Credit in 30 Days

How to Build Business Credit in 30 Days

Today, we’re talking about how to build business credit in 30 days. In this post, you’re going to learn step-by-step how to establish anywhere from 12 to 15 accounts reporting on your company’s business credit reports whether you’re a start-up or an existing business in 30 days or less.

So, let’s get started.

Why build business credit? Building business credit allows a business owner to protect their personal credit while establishing the creditworthiness of the business itself. With a separate legal entity such as a corporation or limited liability company, you have the unique ability to create a credit identity for the business also known as a business credit profile with the business credit reporting agencies.

When you structure your business as a corporation or limited liability company it becomes recognized as a separate legal entity with the ability to enter into contracts. It’s treated as a separate being. Basically, you have the ability to create a credit file in your company’s name using your EIN number.

As you know you have a Social Security Number. Your social security number is used when you apply for personal credit while a business has an EIN number which is also known as your Employer Identification Number.

Your EIN is used by the IRS for tax purposes, but this also gives you the ability to create a business credit report with the business credit reporting agencies. This credit profile for your business is vital if you plan on acquiring credit or funding using your company’s credit report as a qualifier.

How to Open a Business Credit File with Experian

How to Open a Business Credit File with Experian

The other day I got asked which business credit reporting agency is most widely used by banks and credit card issuers when checking a business credit file. Without a doubt I would have to say Experian Commercial which leads me to writing today’s post.

What is a business credit file? A business credit file is created by a business credit reporting agency when a credit grantor reports information associated to a company’s credit account. A business credit file is used by credit grantors during the decision-making process to determine whether or not to extend credit to a business.

Your credit file gets opened with Experian when a credit grantor reports your company’s data to Experian Commercial. In order to accomplish this, your business needs to establish a business credit account with a credit grantor that reports to Experian.

Here are three ways to get your business credit report established with Experian in 30 days:

Strategy #1

One of the fastest ways to get this done is with our business credit card funding program. Under this program you get 4-5 business credit cards that report only to Experian Commercial and in some cases Equifax Small Business. In less than 30 days you can have 4-5 revolving lines of credit listed on your Experian business credit report.
