Have you or someone you know been meaning to open an account with VyStar but not had time to visit a branch or sit down at a desktop computer to complete the process? With our new Online Account Opening application, members and potential members can use their mobile device to open and fund an account in as little as five minutes. To put that into perspective: If anyone out there still plays FarmVille, you could potentially open 24 new accounts online in the time it would take your strawberry crop to harvest.
Open an account in less than 5 minutes
With our new application, members and potential members can open an account without experiencing delayed processing time. This is because our new platform provides instant account authentication and verification and does not require you to know your external account and routing numbers to be able to fund an account. Instead, thanks to our partnerships with Payveris and Plaid, you are able to link your VyStar account to an existing account, making the account verification and funding process quick, seamless and secure. If you have ever linked an external bank account through apps like Venmo, Robinhood or Marcus, you’ve used Plaid to establish that transfer.

At VyStar, we are continuously looking for ways to provide the best possible experience for our members, both in our branches and through our digital services.
