Rho, a growing leader in business banking for SMBs, startups, and scaled organizations, is now providing services to clients and independent members of the BDO Alliance USA as part of its Vendor Marketing Program. As part of this program, Rho will be able to offer these growing businesses and professional services firms direct access to the banking platform purposefully built for growth-minded companies.
Rho is the business banking platform with everything customers need to manage company cash and grow their organizations. Designed for a frictionless experience, organizations can apply in minutes and quickly get started with 24/7 concierge banking and enterprise-grade spend management. As businesses grow, so too does access to essential tools and premium service—all with zero SaaS fees.
“Rho’s inclusion in the Vendor Marketing Program is part of our objective of offering our Alliance members a greater competitive advantage by giving them the ability to leverage additional value-added resources,” said Tom Takasaki, Practice Leader for the BDO Alliance USA’s Business Resource Network. “We strive to establish relationships with product and service providers that can offer the kind of forward-looking capabilities that our Alliance members and their clients need.”
Rho’s introduction to the BDO Alliance USA was sparked during a chance meeting between leaders from the two organizations at ENGAGE 2024, hosted by AICPA & CIMA.
“When I met Tom Takasaki, he explained to me that they did not currently have anyone in their Alliance community that provides streamlined financial operations covering cash and spend management all in one platform,” said Dominic Daley, Rho’s VP of Channel Sales. “Rho has traditionally served SMBs and startups remarkably well, and at ENGAGE, we officially launched the Rho Partner Program, expanding our reach to include accountants as both customers and partners. The response from the accounting community has been incredibly strong, as demonstrated by the 10x growth in Rho's partner base since June 2024.”
Existing and new partners continue to benefit from Rho’s commitment to the accountant community with offerings like the newly launched Accountant Partner Portal and Xero integration, further enhancing the value Rho brings to communities like the BDO Alliance USA.
BDO Alliance USA members who join Rho’s Partner Program are eligible to receive a $2.5k sign up bonus1 after onboarding their 2nd client. In addition, firms and their clients who open a Rho account can earn up to 2% cash back with Rho Platinum.
