Friends Tell Friends About Better Banking.

From checking and savings accounts to mortgages and simply better lending, we promise to be a bank you can stand behind – and tell your friends about.

Get Rewarded for Telling Everyone.

We’re committed to providing you with innovative products, local servicing and dedication to support the communities where we live and work. And when you tell your family and friends about banking with us, and they open a new checking account – you’ll reap the rewards.

Each time a new checking account is opened and your name is referenced, you’ll receive a special gift1 as our way of saying thank you for your referral. More referrals? Great, you had better make room for more gifts because they’re comin’ home with ya!

Or save up five referral coupons and have $502 placed in your checking account. We’re here to make it easy for you – and reward you how you like it.
