Overview
Found is a banking app aimed at sole proprietors and freelancers that combines a business account with bookkeeping, invoicing and tax tools[16]. Banking services are provided by Lead Bank, Member FDIC; Found describes itself as a financial technology company, not a bank, and funds are insured up to $250,000 per depositor per ownership category[16]. The free plan includes the account, debit cards, bookkeeping, invoicing and tax features without a subscription fee[16].
Found Plus ($35 a month or $315 a year) adds 1.50% APY on balances up to $20,000, business credit-building, free mailed checks and $12 domestic wires; Found Pro ($80 a month or $720 a year) pays 2.50% APY on all balances, adds 1% cash back on eligible card purchases, a metal debit card, a dedicated account manager and $8 domestic wires[16]. Both paid plans have a 30-day free trial[16]. Found does not advertise a sweep network, so its insured limit is the standard $250,000, lower than Mercury, Relay, Bluevine or Novo. Its emphasis on tax set-asides and expense categorisation makes it closer to a freelancer finance tool than to an operating account for a growing company.
