“Can a community-first fintech dismantle systemic banking barriers for African American, Hispanic, and Indigenous communities through transparent mobile banking and embedded financial literacy?”
Founded in 2020, OurBanc set out to build a community-first mobile banking app targeting financially underserved communities in the US. The company operates as a fintech (not a licensed bank), relying on banking-as-a-service partner(s) for the regulated layer. As of the most recent SEC filing (2024), the company remains very early-stage with one employee and minimal assets, suggesting it is still in pre-launch or soft-launch phase.
