What is Penta overdraft?
Simply put, overdraft lets you dip into a negative balance if you don’t have money in your account to cover a transaction. It’s ideal for when you know money’s coming in but it hasn’t arrived yet and you still need to make payments. Instead of being charged a fee or the transaction failing, the money goes through and you pay interest on the amount gone into overdraft. Penta overdraft is currently available to GmbHs and UGs, as well as to freelancers and sole proprietors who meet the credit requirements.
