Entity Accounts

What is an Entity Account?

An entity account is a brokerage account opened in the name of a legal business structure rather than an individual. These accounts can be opened as either Cash or Margin accounts.

At this time, Webull offers entity accounts exclusively for:

• LLCs (Limited Liability Companies)
• C-Corporations
• S-Corporations

Entity Account Omnibus Products include:

• Stock trading
• ETFs
• Cash Management
• Money Market trading
• Fixed Income

Important to know:

• Existing individual account holders must create a new, separate login to open an entity account. Entity and individual accounts cannot be accessed under the same login.
• Only one entity account can be opened per login. If you wish to maintain both a cash and a margin entity account, you will need to open each under a separate login with a different phone number.
• A minimum initial deposit of $100,000 is required to open an entity account.
• An ongoing equity balance of at least $50,000 must be maintained in the account.
• Options trading is not available for entity accounts at this time.

What are the requirements to open an Entity Account?

Entity account requirements are generally the same as those for an individual account but require additional company information and documents for verification.

How long does it take to open my Entity account?

Entity account applications typically take 3–4 business days to review. The process may take longer if any required documentation is missing or incomplete.

How do I fund my Entity Account?

Funding must be completed using an account under the same business name as the entity account.

Acceptable funding methods include:

• ACH deposit from a business bank account in the same name as the entity.
• Wire transfer from a business bank account in the same name as the entity.
• ACAT transfer from another brokerage account opened under the same business name and account type.

Funding from personal accounts, joint accounts, or bank accounts not registered under the same business name will not be accepted.
