Overview

Access Bank was founded in 2007 and has its headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska. It has $940.4 million in assets and deposits totaling $786.7 million, which makes it a medium-size bank.

It is a conventional brick-and-mortar bank with in-person service, in addition to its online and mobile apps. With a commendable 4.3 stars out of 5, Access Bank proves it is a great bank that you should seriously consider. Access Bank offers the full slate of banking products, which include savings accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts, CDs, mortgage products and credit cards. Access Bank has a fair savings rate; other popular banks have higher rates.
