Cannabis Banking FAQs
Generally, many banks do not serve the needs of businesses that sell cannabis-related products and services. At Dime, we believe every business should have the opportunity to take advantage of banking services to support their business. That’s why we’ve opened the door to having conversations with cannabis-related businesses about helping them with their banking needs.
Our cannabis banking program is focused on entities throughout the cannabis supply chain. This includes dispensaries, cultivators, wholesalers, distributors, testing labs, hemp businesses, private equity firms, and more.
Currently, it is still highly risky for banks to finance a cannabis business. However, Dime is willing to discuss financing options with cannabis-related business owners.
Before meeting with one of our Cannabis Banking Specialists, please have the following information on hand:
- Documentation detailing all beneficial owners of the business
- State-issued identification (i.e. Driver’s license) for all account holders
- Articles of incorporation, a business plan, or other business formation documents
- Bank statements from the last six months
- Financial information and operational data of the business
- Any state required licenses
The SAFE Banking Act, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives in May 2020, allows banks to serve cannabis-related businesses. The Act specifically prohibits federal banking regulators from penalizing banks who service the needs of cannabis-related business. The bill is yet to be passed by the U.S. Senate.
