If you are:
Investing in U.S. real estate
Purchasing properties, collecting rent, and paying contractors
Running businesses in the U.S. – digital, e-commerce, or physical
You must have a strong, stable, and properly structured U.S. bank account.
Today, there are several options in the market. In the video, I review four main alternatives:
Relay
A solid option and a stable bank.
The main downsides are higher fees and a less user-friendly interface compared to more advanced solutions.
Wise
A weaker alternative to a U.S. bank—more similar to PayBox.
High fees, account closures, and it’s simply not suitable for real estate activity or running businesses in the U.S.
🏦 Traditional Institutional Bank
An excellent option only if you live in the U.S. permanently—
and potentially risky if you don’t.
I’ve seen too many cases where clients flew to the U.S., opened an account, returned home,
and after a few months discovered their account was frozen because the bank required an in-person branch visit for signatures.
And now for the fourth—and most important—option 👇
🚀 Mercury – hands down the best option today for Israeli investors
Low Wire and ACH fees
The highest FDIC insurance coverage available – recently increased from $5,000,000 to $60,000,000
Strong and stable banking infrastructure
Excellent customer service
So now that we understand Mercury is the right choice—what’s next?
You can always try opening the account on your own,
and even receive the signup bonus 🎁
But it’s critical to understand this point ⚠️:
A first attempt is possible, and even if it’s not approved, in some cases the application can still be salvaged.
A second failed attempt, in most cases, creates a block on the company itself.
Once that happens, it’s no longer possible to reapply for the same account or company.
I can’t stress enough how important it is to work with professionals who know the Mercury system inside and out.
We’ve seen dozens of people who tried multiple times unsuccessfully,
and their only way to regain access was by opening an entirely new company.
What are the advantages of working with a professional who works closely and in partnership with Mercury?
Proper and precise application handling
Faster and more organized process
Accelerated customer support throughout the entire life of the account
And every client who deposits funds receives a $300 signup bonus 💵
