“Many of the business owners that become customers or switch to us from – both traditional banks and from digital-first banks and platforms – tend to do so out of frustration. Frustration with trying and failing to open a regular business bank account, the length of time it takes or the amount of paperwork required, poor customer service, unnecessary complexities or simply accumulative fees,” he remarked.
