Operating notes

What founders should decide before buying tools

Founder rule

Prepare the operating story before the application: who owns the company, what it sells, where money comes from, and where it goes.

Banking stack

Many founders need more than one route: a reserve bank, a fintech account, a payment processor payout account, and a backup option.

Affiliate readiness

Banking referral links must be paired with strong eligibility disclaimers and no approval promises.
