Common Mistakes We See
Assuming it opens the account
It is one document a provider may ask for. Approval is still entirely theirs.
Using a generic template
Resolutions that do not match your actual ownership structure get rejected.
Leaving authority vague
If it does not clearly say who may act, it does not do its job.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a banking resolution?
An internal company document recording who your company authorises to open and operate bank accounts and transact on its behalf. Banks and payment providers commonly request it during onboarding.
Does it open my account?
No. It is one document a provider may ask for as part of onboarding. Whether they approve you is entirely their decision, based on their own criteria.
Do I need one for a single-member LLC?
Sometimes. Even with one owner, providers may ask for it to confirm authority. It is more commonly essential where several members are involved.
Is it the same as an operating agreement?
No. An operating agreement governs the whole company. A banking resolution deals specifically with who may act on financial accounts. Providers often ask for both.
Will my bank definitely accept it?
We cannot promise that. Some providers insist on their own form. We draft to what is commonly expected and tell you if your provider has its own requirement.
Is it included with formation?
Yes — a banking resolution is part of our LLC formation packages. This standalone service is for companies formed elsewhere or needing a new one.
