Review of the Mettle, Business Banking:

Modern day banking for the modern day business

5
I selected Mettle for my business bank account as I wanted the modern user experience of a challenger bank, but with better integration, support and functionality. I was impressed by how quickly and securely I was able to open my account which was done within 24hrs following mandatory checks. Most banks currently have a lead time of around a month for opening a business current account so I highly recommend Mettle, if you require a quality business account and time is of the essence. Mettle is authorised by the FCA and is owned by NatWest so you have the added reassurance that your funds are protected and ring fenced within a regulated bank. You also get access to award winning accounting software, FreeAgent, free of charge as long as you make at least one transaction per month. The in app customer services team are super helpful and are quick to respond to any queries you may have. Mettle also offer 100% fee free banking so if you’re starting up on a tight budget, like me, then you won’t have to worry about troublesome charges which can become a burden especially when starting out. With free award winning accounting software - to help you manage your own books, fee free banking and superb customer services, Mettle is the ideal banking partner for the modern business.

For someone who’s started their own business, Mettle has honestly been the best way to keep track of my accounts. It’s super easy to use and makes managing everything feel so much less stressful. I love how simple it is, and it really takes a weight off my shoulders so I can just focus on growing my business. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2025
