Cannabis Banking Made Easy: PFCU & Green Check Verified Partnership Is Breaking Barriers

Green Check Verified, a fintech connector, technology, and insights provider in the emerging cannabis market, has partnered with PFCU, a community-based credit union with 13 locations in Michigan.

This partnership empowers PFCU to expand its cannabis banking offering to legal cannabis businesses throughout its communities, providing them access to a full suite of financial products and services.

PFCU is a credit union located in West/Central Michigan, with over $800,000 million in assets, over 55,000 members, and 13 branch locations.

A member of Green Check Connect, an intelligent-matching marketplace for cannabis-related businesses and service providers, PFCU offers its members a wide range of products and services like checking and savings accounts, debit cards, business checks, online services like payroll, and even a personal banker, known as a “cannabis concierge,” that helps navigate their PFCU experience.

Kevin Hart, founder and CEO of Green Check, who is a speaker at the upcoming Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Chicago, said Green Check’s mission is to “tackle the operational burden for financial institutions so that they can focus on a growth-focused program that fits their needs.”

“Green Check simplifies and strengthens cannabis banking across the country, and organizations like PFCU are leading the way in providing a positive impact to their local communities,” he added.

Green Check landed some major deals over the years, including partnerships with Avidia Bank and Alleaves as well as acquisitions of PayQwick and Komplyd.

The Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference, the place where deals get done, is returning to Chicago this Sept 27-28 for its 17th edition. Get your tickets today before prices increase and secure a spot at the epicenter of cannabis investment and branding.
