"Our goal is to build a relationship with everyone who joins Firstrust. Today, the digital banking experience is the easiest and most convenient way for our customers to interact with their money, anytime, anywhere, anyplace,” said Abell. “Q2 ClickSWITCH enables us to take friction away from that experience from the beginning and helps convey who we are, a bank that can serve all their needs in-person at our 18 branches or online through our digital banking platform.”
