Frequently Asked Questions
Q : Does First Enterprise Bank have experience with cannabis businesses?
A : Yes! We opened our first cannabis-related checking accounts in 2018 and currently have more than 200 cannabisbusinesses banking with us.
Q : Why are the fees higher than a normal account?
A : FinCEN (US Treasury Dept.) and the FDIC watch cash transactions very closely. The bank has a lot of back-office work to do to keep you and the bank in compliance with those strict regulations.
Q : My business is located outside of Oklahoma City and driving there to make deposits would be difficult. Do you have any suggestions?
A : While we do have a provider service area, we will open accounts statewide. We are aware of courier services to safely deposit your cash in your account. Just ask us for details.
Q : What do I need to get started?
A : We Keep it Simple! All forms are electronic and can be emailed to you right away.
Q : Does First Enterprise Bank make loans to cannabis businesses?
A : Unfortunately, until the Federal cannabis laws change, we cannot make cannabis-related loans. However, establishing a checking account relationship with us now will make the lending process quicker and easier when the Federal laws change.
