Members who choose to bank with Black-owned companies, like ONE VIP, do so because the social impact is essential.

Banking with Black-Owned Companies offers an alternative to discriminatory practices contributing to distrust of the financial services industry. There are plenty of statistics that support the notion of Black applicants being charged more with financial services products, so banks’ skepticism is not unwarranted. By turning to Black-Owned financial solutions, Black Americans are keeping Black Dollars in Black Communities. This can translate into increased employment and job creation opportunities.
