Who We Are
Avante Credit Bank commenced operations in January 2007 with competences in investment, corporate and retail banking. Today, The Bank offers wide-ranging financial services to individuals, businesses and the public sector of the nation’s economy. As a further commitment to the growth of the nation’s economy, Avante Credit Bank focuses in particular on SMEs and Agribusinesses. We are driven by the vision to be the retail bank of choice for all and this is at the core of all that we do. Welcome to a bank where succeeding together is our objective.
Avante Credit Bank is one of the first of global virtual banking services, which, in fact, was created as a mobile application from an organization that is not a bank, but promotes its services as banking, relying on legal and processing support Partner bank.
At Avante Credit, we work hard to provide the easiest way to bank and invest to help customers achieve financial well-being. We strive to provide a great customer experience through our branches, care center, ATMs, online and mobile solutions. Customers have secure and convenient access to personal financial expertise, tools and competitive products and services.
More than 9 million consumers and small businesses use our various deposit, lending, credit card, cash management and investment services. You can find Avante Credit branches, solution centers and ATMs across the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Southeast and Southwest. We also offer residential mortgage loans within our branch network and nationwide.
We’ve expanded our Retail Bank nationally through a digital-focused, thin branch strategy outside our existing branch network, leveraging “solution centers” that combine skilled banker assistance and technology to create personalized experiences as well as manage routine banking needs. The solution center provides a collaborative environment that connects our customers with our digital solutions and services, beyond deposits and withdrawals. Currently, we have more than 25 solution centers in Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Massachusetts, Tennessee and Texas. We also offer digital unsecured installment and small business loans in the expansion markets.
In April 2021, we announced our Low Cash ModeSM Virtual Wallet® feature which will give our customers the ability to avoid unnecessary overdraft fees through real-time intelligent alerts, extra time to prevent or address overdrafts, and controls to choose which items to pay and which to return rather than the bank making the decision.
Whether it’s buying a home, saving for retirement, investing for the future or finding the right credit card, Avante Credit Bank helps customers gain the confidence they need to make important financial decisions
