Success
Failure
Running a business as a merchant or a retailer today requires more than just offering high-quality products or services. It also requires making transactions as simple and effective as possible. To achieve this, you need a Current Account that is specially designed for Merchants, and can streamline your daily operations, help you manage expenses, and support your growth prospects. That's where Kotak's Merchant One account plays an important role in helping you boost your business growth.
Merchant One Account is available in two variants: Merchant One Current Account and Merchant One Premium Current Account. Both these accounts come with power-packed features that help merchants digitise their daily business processes and automate transactions while also providing value-added services. But there are differences between the two, each with their own benefits and features that might make it a better fit for your business.
Let's take a detailed look at both these Current Accounts to understand their key differences.
1. Average Balance
The Average Quarterly Balance of Merchant One Current Account is Rs. 50,000.
If you opt for Merchant One Premium Current Account, you will need to maintain an Average Quarterly Balance of Rs. 1,00,000. This means that the Premium account requires a higher level of balance commitment, but the benefits you receive will be very helpful in elevating your business.
2. Free Cash Deposit
If you are constantly dealing with large amounts of cash, you will appreciate the higher deposit limit offered by both the accounts.
While the Merchant One account allows a reasonable free monthly cash deposit limit, the Merchant Premium account offers a significantly higher deposit limit per month.
3. Free DD/BC (Demand Draft/ Banker's Cheque)
The Merchant One Current Account comes with a limited number of free DD/BC per month, after which standard charges will apply.
In comparison, the Merchant One Premium Current Account gives you a much higher number of free DD/BC per month. Again, after this limit is reached, the standard charges will apply.
