Mercury does not offer this.
Mercury Treasury invests idle cash in government money market funds and, since August 2026, an ultra-short bond fund. It is not FDIC insured, may lose value, and carries a 0.15–0.60% fee.
Requires a US-registered company. Founders outside the US often qualify through a Delaware company. Deposits sit with partner banks; Mercury has conditional approval for its own national bank charter.
