A Partnership Rooted in Shared Values

We believe your money should reflect your values. That’s why we’re honored to team up with Liberty University — an institution dedicated to developing Christ-centered leaders who influence the world for good.

When you bank with 316 Financial, you’re choosing more than competitive rates and fee-free accounts. You’re partnering with a financial institution that tithes, gives back to Christian causes, and helps others align their finances with their faith.

Together, we’re building a community of purpose-driven savers and spenders — people who believe that even everyday banking can make an eternal impact.

The Bank That Tithes

It’s true—we donate 10% of our profits to causes that create lasting impact and reflect His teachings. It’s also true that we do this without cutting corners on rewards and service for you. That means excellent accounts, FDIC protection, all with banking you can feel good about.

If you choose your school, your friends and your activities based on values, why not your bank?
