Business Credit Card
After opening your business bank account (and getting a debit card), you may also want to get a credit card for your LLC.
Business credit cards offer more rewards than just a debit card, such as cashback and travel.
Getting a business credit card also help builds your LLC’s credit history, which is separate from your own personal credit.
When applying for an LLC credit card, you will need:
- Federal Tax ID Number (aka EIN)
- your social security number
- business address

Hi Matt,
Can a foreigner apply for an LLC credit card?
Hi Frank, I believe so, but not 100% sure. I think you’ll need an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number). I think there are companies that help foreigners build credit history, but I don’t know anything about this space yet. Proceed with caution though as their could be some shady companies out there. I’d say the best way to go about it is open a business account and a personal account at the bank (in the state where you for your LLC). Then after you establish some history with them, visit the brach in person and ask about obtaining a credit card. Hope that helps. Feel free to keep me posted. I’m curious to hear what you come with.
Great website. Thank you very much!
You’re very welcome Sam! Thanks for the nice comment :)
