At Navy Federal, the $0 tier allows an owner and one signer, unlimited signers start at $8 per month, and every entity is its own membership and account. Glep opens an account per LLC and a sub-account per property by default, each with its own routing and account number, free, with team access scoped per entity.

At Navy Federal, each business opens its own membership and account with a $250 or $255 deposit. On Glep, every LLC lives under one login with its own account, cards and records, each team member sees only the entities you give them, and every property gets a sub-account with its own account number, all free.
Yes. The contractor's card carries the project's budget as its ceiling, plus merchant locks and a freeze you can hit from your phone, and every purchase is recorded against the project. Navy Federal's GO BIZ debit and credit cards are subject to approval with no project cap listed, and beyond two signers, entity-scoped access starts on the $8 Plus tier.
Glep works upstream of your ledger: spend is categorized and tagged to its property as it happens, so your accountant receives clean data. Navy Federal lists no property-level tracking and no categorization, so the per-property split is built after the fact, and separating entities there means a separate membership for each one.
Yes. iOS and Android, receipt capture at the point of spend, card issue, freeze and terminate from the owner's phone, each team member scoped to their own entities. Navy Federal mobile covers the account, unlimited signers start on the $8 Plus tier, and no expense policies are listed, so mobile oversight is per account rather than per project.
No. Open a Glep account online with your US business entity and EIN, add each LLC, open a sub-account per property and issue cards; one property first is the usual way in. Navy Federal is a credit union with NCUA insurance and the membership is worth keeping. What changes is the structure around it: separate memberships per entity there, against an account per LLC and a sub-account per property here, with Navy Federal's tiers at $0, $8 or $20 per month.
If your business is a set of properties held in a set of entities, Glep is built around that structure: an account per LLC, a sub-account per property, Aida tagging every transaction to the property it belongs to, and contractor cards that stop at the budget. Contractors and developers get the same structure for projects, draws and crews, and pay subs by same-day ACH or wire at $0, or by RTP or FedNow. If your business is outside real estate but runs money across several entities, projects or vendors, Glep gives you multi-entity management, entity-scoped team access, sub-accounts with unique account numbers, approval workflows and unlimited cards on the free plan, with no membership requirement and no signer limit. Start with one property or one project and move the rest on your own schedule; there is no contract and no lock-in.
