Rho can incorporate your company for you — a Delaware C-corp, filed on your behalf, with every formation document reviewed and approved by a licensed attorney. Most founders finish the flow in about 5 minutes, and roughly 80% of filings complete within 24 hours.
What does incorporation with Rho include?
Delaware certificate of incorporation, filed for you
Your EIN application (Form SS-4) submitted to the IRS
Attorney review and approval of every formation document
Registered-agent service, included for the first year
What does it cost?
Incorporation requires a $400 deposit, which is fully refunded once you open a Rho account and maintain a $10,000 average checking balance for 60 days ($1,000 for founders introduced through an accelerator). If Rho becomes your bank, incorporation is effectively free.
What are the requirements?
At least one U.S.-based owner or officer
A physical U.S. operating address
Delaware C-corps only — other entity types and states aren't supported yet
Can I open a Rho account before I have an EIN?
Yes. Rho supports pre-EIN onboarding, so you can start banking while your EIN application is in progress. International founders without a U.S. SSN or TIN are supported too — expect a longer EIN timeline from the IRS.
When do I get my documents?
Rho files your Delaware certificate first, then submits your EIN application. About 80% of filings complete within 24 hours; the EIN follows on the IRS's timeline.
