Fly through history with us
Offering personalized financial wisdom because your success is our success.
We offer big-bank security with community bank service. Our goal is to make financing, and banking simple and personalized for small businesses, friends, and the people in our communities. When you call us, you talk to an expert, not a machine. When you visit us, we attend to you, not your account number. In addition, we offer mobile banking and onsite advisors who can help you with your financial goals.
Our people understand that time is of the essence regarding the growing demand for loans nationwide. That’s why we’ve developed automated API technology for more people to access the types of loans they need, which enables us to serve them faster than traditional banks by processing thousands of loans daily. We help previously underserved customers move forward by supercharging the world of fintech while maintaining our community heart. When our customers and partners succeed, it helps us do more for more people and fuels the drive to create a positive change within our communities.
FinWise Bank supercharges the world of fintech while maintaining its community heart.
Leadership that drives innovative banking solutions.
FinWise Bank’s emergence as a top-performing community bank is traced directly to CEO Kent Landvatter’s unique vision cultivated by his decades of experience in banking and especially the non-profit space. Within the financial system, Kent worked directly with disenfranchised consumers and saw firsthand the challenges facing many Americans with limited access to credit and banking. Through the use and integration of technology, Kent saw the opportunity for banks to operate more efficiently, lower lending and origination costs, and better assess default risk. To reflect this shift to an online model, the bank adopted the FinWise brand in 2016.
We are a group of heart-led professionals who are innovative in how we look at the world and are committed to exploring new products and services to enrich the lives of our customers and partners.

Purpose-driven technology.
Our goal is to develop award-winning technologies that make your life easier through tireless innovation. The secret sauce is in our proprietary FinView Analytics platform. It shows us opportunities that other banks may not see to help more people get the funds they need. We use a robust automated process that allows us to fund loans in only a few days, compared to other banks that do processing and accounting entries by hand.

By using technology, we effectively support platforms that provide access to millions of Americans across the country with a volume that is infinitely scalable and advanced reporting tools to generate customized data at any stage in the loan process. As a result, we quickly became one of the top fintech banks in the country.
“When thinking about where we see ourselves in the future. I always start with corporate culture. If the right culture is in place, our vision is much more likely to become reality.”
