Totally branchless banking has increased lately, but many are still skeptical. In 2014, Bankrate released a study saying that more than 30% of Americans haven’t visited a branch in the last six months. With the rise of mobile technology, financial security, and digital communication, it’s possible to never step foot in a branch again. But you don’t have to use a fintech startup with an unproven track history to go branchless: Heritage Valley FCU offers everything you need.
Simplify your checking and live easier with these tips on going branchless.
