Company: North One Email Address: contact@northone.com Website: www.northone.com Best Digital Banking Solution for Small Businesses 2025 - North America Traditional banks are not designed to meet the needs of the American small business owner. Their products are cost prohibitive and come with hidden fees and money movement limits, while requiring a high minimum balance. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Enter North One, where what you see is what you get. Their fees are completely transparent, accounts have no minimum balance requirements, and no overdraft fees. They offer high money movement limits, as well as a premium-tier plan called North One Plus, which costs just $30 per month (or $300 per year for a 20% discount) so businesses can benefit from industry-leading APY on cash balances back, cash back on debit card spend, and speedier money movement. While we already have an understanding of the company’s exceptional offering for business owners, it doesn’t end there, for it’s paired with outstanding customer service. North One’s customer satisfaction score has consistently sat at 91%+ for years. What gives the company the upper hand? For starters, its product is built and improved upon by taking its customer feedback and implementing it into product development plans. While this is how all successful software companies operate, it is not how banks do. As a result, the North One banking app is visually appealing with a seamless user experience, and it is exactly what its client base needs. Furthermore, its customer service offering is second to none because its team is based in-house and they are dedicated to delivering a fast, reliable, and friendly response. This is while traditional banks often outsource their customer service to third parties who are slow and unhelpful. Underscoring everything the North One team does is their commitment to the company’s core values. For ‘One Team’, its teams and hierarchies work together as one cohesive unit, meaning collaboration takes place with the utmost respect and professionalism across the board. With ‘Act with Urgency’, its team understands the importance of each client’s unique situation, acting decisively and efficiently to quickly and thoughtfully solve problems, never cutting corners and ensuring each task is fulfilled to a high standard. “The Customer is Your First Boss” represents the team’s commitment to prioritising the customer and ensuring any decision made is done by prioritising their best interests. “Your Work is Your Legacy” means the team is proud of everything they build and do, and they never compromise on quality. “Good Enough is Never Good Enough” highlights the team’s tireless attitude towards both personal and professional development, continuing to raise the bar when it comes to performance. With “Obsessive Execution”, the team executes with discipline, precision, and drive, because they believe that consistent delivery – not just strategy – is what leads to success. Lastly, “Big Bold Bets, Big Bold Goals” is reflective of the team’s challenging of incrementalism by making strategic, calculated decisions that lead to ambitious outcomes through smart reiteration.
