### 3/5 — Not gonna say it’s bad but not good if that makes sense

*2026-07-26*

Not gonna say it’s hard but if your a good researcher and can do things by yourself with the blueprint given to you cool this it it, but if you need one on one with someone and help with things like this nahh this not for you but customer service was nice and helpful they work with me they will charge you 50 million times for something that free for the year so I recommend putting a dummy card on here

### 4/5 — Great site/app but a little buggy

*2026-07-26, version 2026.12*

The app helps deposit checks into your account but when taking pics of your check, there is no Manuel button to take the picture and sometimes the app never takes it for you. Restarting the app helps usually

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-15, version 2026.08*

Will scam you out of $400 and won’t let you cancel nothing and will secretly make you agree that it’s fine, don’t do business with them they are horrible

### 2/5 — App is so hard to use

*2026-06-10, version 2026.08*

The little bar at the bottom covers everything important you need to use for invoices or adding information why have they not fixed this?

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-06-04, version 2026.08*

I trying to cancel my subscription but they don’t wanna.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-06-01, version 2026.08*

Way harder than it should be, no support

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-05-29, version 2026.07*

I enjoyed the ease and flexibility of the app. It made starting an LLC very simple.

### 1/5 — SCAM! STAY AWAY

*2026-05-29, version 2026.07*

I am not one to write reviews but I don’t want anyone in the same situation I have been in. Zenbusiness has caused more problems than any other company I have ever worked with. To be quite honest, the company has done nothing to benefit us at all. 

Here is what they do: you register, they trick you with their subscription models… after registering your business, they quickly take all of your info and sell it to brokerages. These brokerages, along with zen business call and call and call trying to tell you your business is at risk. I received thousands of these calls over the last year.

There is no where on the website or app you can cancel your subscription. I had to email them to tell them I wanted to cancel. I received a response not addressing my initial inquiry, but instead, asking me for protected personal information that should never be exchanged via email. 

Absolute waste of money. Horrible business

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-05-28, version 2026.07*

The app is outdated. The domain I created never worked and I never received any help or notification regarding my domain registration. I didn’t enjoy using this platform.

### 1/5 — Will charge you $400 a year for doing nothing

*2026-05-28, version 2026.07*

This is just a money grab at this point. They charge you $200 a year for being a registered agent for literally doing nothing and another $200 a year for their subscription which you don’t need but you have to have. There isn’t any way to cancel on their app and when you contact support they just stone wall you and refuse to cancel. You can literally do all of this stuff yourself and they are charging a premium for it.

### 1/5 — The Mobile Deposit experience is poor

*2026-05-25, version 2026.07*

The mobile deposit section of the app is buggy. It won’t allow you to take a clear picture because the image is captured automatically instead of being user controlled. Then, when you actually get what you think is a clear picture, you have to wait until a decision is made if accepted or not (usually taking a day). I waited in until
I saw “clearing” but my check was arbitrarily declined for no apparent reason even after that point. “Unable to use image” it said but not sure why. This is extremely inconvenient

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE THEM!

*2026-05-21, version 2026.07*

Stay away, i paid for premium package and after 10 days my LLC still not formed and i received email that my state rejected it because of name conflict any accountant that forms LLC can check this in front of you and tell you choose something else before submitting to state, this people didn’t even bother, all they did gathered information and submitted as it is to state, why i paid $200 for this i still don’t know. Don’t do my mistake, stay away

### 1/5 — Trash Subscription charges

*2026-05-14, version 2026.07*

They try to sneak in a subscription that you don’t realize you signed up for until you start getting charged. They also don’t make it easy to cancel the subscription or get a refund. It was rather annoying as someone who is starting a business and doesn’t have time to be on the phone or chatting with support to get a cancellation for a subscription in ever wanted or asked for or physically signed up for.

### 1/5 — DONT USE THEM BAD REFUND POLICY

*2026-05-04, version 2026.06*

Didn’t refund my subscription and charged my card. I REPEAT DONT NOT USE ZEN.BUSINESS THEY REFUSED TO REFUND ME I WILL DEVOTE ALL OF MY ENERGY TO SAVE OTHERS FROM THIS.THEY CLAIM THEY CANNOT LOCATE MY ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO DISCREDIT MY BAD REVIEW.

### 1/5 — DONT USE THEM BAD REFUND POLICY

*2026-04-29, version 2026.06*

Didn’t refund my subscription and charged my card

### 1/5 — Predatory Business

*2026-04-15*

Yeah so when you use this company to form the llc be sure you do it carefully and read everything. This company likes to put several ads in front of you distracting you from the options you’re selecting. By all rights you can and should only choose entry level package that costs only $50 for the state level fees and free as far as subscription. When it comes to the REGISTERED AGENT section be very careful as they will bind you in a legal catch all saying you clicked so it’s your own fault. You actually can be your own registered agent. You don’t need zen business to be registered agent. The $199 fee with that they took out my account no warning and said oh well you clicked it it’s your fault.  The management was very rude disrespectful. Gave me false call back number I still have that voicemail. This company is like so many others putting the option to click big and the fine print of the cost small as they legally can.

### 1/5 — They steal your money

*2026-04-11, version 2026.05*

I bought their services for around $280, and I never got my business set up and they didn’t refund my money.

### 1/5 — USE ANYONE ELSE and JUST SAY NO TO ZENNOTBUSINESS

*2026-04-08, version 2026.05*

AVOID AT ALL COST

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sent me another client’s confidential IRS documents

*2026-08-14, version 2026.13*

Used ZenBusiness to form my LLC and file for an EIN. Instead of my own EIN letter, they sent me the IRS notice for a completely different business — full name, home address, and federal tax ID of a stranger. That’s a serious data handling failure, not a typo.

On top of that: long wait times, slow support, and I still don’t have the correct document for my own business days later. If they mixed up my paperwork with someone else’s, I have zero confidence in how they’re handling sensitive information across the board.

### 1/5 — Taxing smh

*2026-08-11, version 2026.13*

Taxing smh

### 1/5 — Horrible company. Do not use!!!!

*2026-08-06, version 2026.12.1*

I run a business that uses email on a daily basis. There is always server issues accessing my email. I contact Support and they take them two hours or more. Sometimes they don’t even call me back to get help. I’m never used this company ever again.. They’ve costed me hundreds of dollars in lost deals and headaches.

### 1/5 — TOTAL DAMN IDIOTS

*2026-07-30, version 2026.12.1*

I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THESE IDIOTS TO FORM MY CAT LITTER BOX  PAID FOR THEIR SERVICES AND THEY SCREWED UP 2of the 3THINGS CAUSING MY BANK TO FREEZE MY MONEY FOR 2WEEKS  GO TO YOUR STATE AND FILE FOR YOURSELF DONT USE THESE IDIOTS

### 1/5 — Would give 0 stars, I want a full refund

*2026-07-30, version 2026.12.1*

If you are starting an LLC for the first time like me please don’t be stupid like me, don’t use this app. This app will charge you $500 for something that costs less than $200 and you’ll have to wait over two weeks for something that you can do in a day. Screw this app

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-06-29, version 2026.11*

This place is an absolute scam I was guaranteed my ein number within 3-4 weeks. It has been 3 months and customer service will only put you on hold. It is impossible to reach anyone who can actually help you out and reviewing a refund is completely off the table. If you want your money to go to waste use this company.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-06-23, version 2026.09*

This is the biggest scam out there I have called multiple times to try and cancel my subscription and they never did so I went through my credit card to dispute the charges and I just had to end up cancelling my entire credit account all together because they would not stop charging me $200 a month, this is by far the worst business I have ever came into contact with and I beg you not to ever do anything with these scammers

### 1/5 — Unacceptable

*2026-06-18, version 2026.08*

I canceled the subscription in February. They charged me for the whole year would not give me a notice or nothing. Send it straight to collections. This place is a thief. They rob you please run the other way when you see in business.

### 1/5 — Find someone else

*2026-06-16, version 2026.08*

Robbed me
Tacked on fee after fee. No financial agent to talk. It’s a scam. Worked out great in the beginning but took more money for services I didn’t want.

### 1/5 — Kainos Solutions LLC

*2026-06-16, version 2026.08*

I paid for expedited service and now in the fourth week of not having the EIN yet after taking three weeks to get the business license. Just poor service all the way through the process with zero accountability.
