Transfers to ZUS, settling debts to a business partner, sending an advance payment for income tax to the tax office or paying rent invoices – the entrepreneur's world is all about transfers. We checked which banks people running their own business can count on unlimited free external transfers.
In the July ranking of the cheapest business accounts, we analyzed bank accounts for entrepreneurs in terms of the price of external transfers (ordered via online or mobile banking). When preparing the quarterly list, we took into account three criteria:
- number of free external internet transfers,
- the fee for each subsequent transfer above the limit set by the bank,
- monthly cost of maintaining a business account.

If two or more banks offer unlimited external transfers after meeting certain activity conditions (e.g. making transfers to ZUS or US, or ensuring payments to the account for a specified amount), the place in the ranking depends on the amount of the transfer fee in the event of non-fulfilment of the conditions.
