The unified platform makes it easy for clients to take care of their financial needs today, and provides insights and support to help them make smart decisions for tomorrow. 

“To succeed in today’s rapidly changing environment takes grit, ingenuity, innovation and a lot of hard work,” said Lynn Heitman, Executive Vice President of the Business Banking Segment at U.S. Bank. “We know that business owners are juggling an overwhelming number of decisions, information and tasks. With Business Essentials, we are serving as their financial partners and helping our clients solve for these challenges via our integrated offering across banking, payments and software.”

Heitman continued, “We bring together multiple products and services in one holistic offering, allowing businesses to have their invoicing, payments, cashflow management, access to funding and more all in one place. Our digital platform makes it quick and easy for business owners to take care of their financial needs, and there are expert bankers standing by when they need more hands-on support. Our aim is to make the day-to-day financial aspects of owning a business simple and efficient so our clients can get back to doing what they love.”
