Most banks build their customer base through brick and mortar locations, ATMs, and other in-person services. We believe the next wave of banks will be 100% virtual, leveraging technology to make banking more accessible, user-friendly, and efficient.

One of the biggest customer segments for our virtual bank will be Millennials - college students and recent graduates. We need your input in defining your ideal virtual bank, so we can best serve YOU in the future.

3. Virtual vs. Physical
