About the Company

Mercury

Runs online business banking for startups

Mercury runs online banking for startups and small businesses, pairing business accounts and corporate cards with built-in software for bill pay, expense tracking, and bookkeeping. It rose to prominence in 2023, when thousands of startups fleeing the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank moved their cash to Mercury within days. Customers open accounts online and use one dashboard to wire money, give employees cards, pay invoices, and invest spare cash in money market and bond funds. Mercury makes money from interest on customer deposits and from card fees, along with paid treasury and software plans. It was founded in 2017 and is based in San Francisco.
