Story Spotlight
LATEST TESTIMONIAL
Ahmet Bidav, Lux Str Insurance
I’ve worked with many financial institutions. Cypress stands out as truly entrepreneurial in spirit. They don’t just lend; they take the time to understand my business model, my acquisitions strategy, and the unique nuances of building through M&A.
Banking Services
The McEldowney Family, Owners of Pinch a Penny®
We absolutely love Cypress Bank & Trust. We have both Business and Personal accounts with them. We run our business with Trust, Respect, and a Handshake—values that are increasingly rare to find.
Erica Houdyshell, Daybreak Foliage
What I love about Cypress is how personal it feels. They know my name. They understand the goals I have for my business. And when I call, whether it’s a small question or a big financial decision, I know someone will pick up and truly help. That kind of relationship is rare.
Dr. Kevin James &, Dr. Ciara James, James Family Dentistry
If there’s ever a problem, I know I can call and reach someone right away. The concierge-level service Cypress provides is hard to find in any industry. They give us access and support exactly when we need it.
Ryan McCain, Barfield McCain Ayoub PA
They took the time to understand our goals, provided clear guidance on our options, and presented us with a financing package and terms that were more competitive than the other lenders we interviewed.
Hiram & Dianne Turull, El Cilantrillo
They’ve been more than bankers, they’ve been my trusted advisors, my sounding board, and my steady partners through every challenge and opportunity. They understand my family, my goals, and they’ve helped me build this dream with the same care as if it were their own.
Julie Shipley, Owner of The Soup Shop
They have educated me on and facilitated the improvement of my anti-fraud behaviors, specifically by introducing me to Positive Pay. The folks at Cypress Bank & Trust have truly made a significant difference in my banking experience and business growth.
Chris Marot, President of Heka Aero LLC
Thanks to the Cypress team, what could have been a daunting experience turned out to be easy, quick, and even enjoyable. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for reliable financial support.
Chris Mazzarella, Owner of Mazzarella Automotive
Implementing Positive Pay at no extra cost was a huge relief, eliminating our risk of check fraud. One of my biggest frustrations was having to go to the bank to send wires, but now I can do it all online with just a quick callback for verification.
John Verdi, Hey Blue!
We are deeply grateful to have a banking partner that doesn’t just manage our accounts, but actively believes in and strengthens our mission. Cypress Bank & Trust is more than a financial institution; they’re a trusted ally in the work of rebuilding trust, one relationship at a time.
Kelly Butz, Tradewinds Consulting
When I hear someone is looking for a new banking relationship, I love to refer them to Cypress Bank & Trust. When they ask me who they should ask for when they call, my reply is always the same — ‘Whoever answers the phone will make sure you are well taken care of!’
Portfolio Management
Amy Tcimpidis, Quality 1st Plumbing
Theo keeps us informed when the markets shift, making sure our investment and retirement accounts are thoughtfully managed. For the first time, I feel genuinely comfortable and confident with my bank. It feels like I finally have a team that’s looking out for me.
