Greenwood
A mobile banking experience made for Black and Latinx customers
It’s no secret the current financial system has failed Black and Latinx communities. Our communities suffer from a lack of wealth, its recirculation, and generational transfer. That is why we created a new financial platform. A platform inspired by the early 1900’s Greenwood District, where recirculation of Black wealth occurred all day, every day, and where Black businesses thrived. Today’s Greenwood is a banking system developed by us, for us.
When you bank with Greenwood, you save money, help the community, and get paid early.1 Recirculating wealth. That’s the Greenwood way. We don’t charge you hidden fees to give us your money. And we don’t have overdraft fees. You made it. You keep it. You prosper. Your money is safe. All deposits will be held at FDIC-insured banks.4 Peace of mind. That’s everything. That’s no-worries banking.
