Old Glory Bank's Upgraded User Interface

 

Customers first. Always.

As the fastest-growing online bank for the Freedom Economy, we don’t build branches. We build relationships. Old Glory Bank is built on a foundation of community. We think of our team and Old Glory Nation as our family. This is also OUR bank. All of our employees are owners, and we strive to make Old Glory Bank the bank we’d choose for ourselves 

That means giving our customers what they want and need whenever possible and not letting ourselves get distracted from that goal.  

We have just completed the rollout of our upgraded User Interface to our customers – a beautiful enhancement to our app and online banking experience. The feedback so far has been incredible. We are thrilled you love it as much as we do. It’s clean and convenient, easy to navigate, and customizable to your preferences. It doesn’t just show your balances and a few transactions—it lets you see your full financial picture at a glance.  

Even as we fight overreach, conduct a mini-IPO, and grow a bank, we don’t slow down or get distracted from our top two goals—serving customers and technology innovation.  

Some fintechs promote an exciting brand, but they lack the security of FDIC insurance. We are FDIC-insured and dedicated to safeguarding your security, even against government bullies.  

Some community banks love their neighbors well, but they can’t offer accounts outside of their local circle and cannot match the technology of the big guys. We offer accounts in all 50 states and anywhere on U.S. soil. We have the personal service of a community bank with the technology of a big bank.  

Lastly, you know how most big, woke banks operate – we have plenty of stories on our blog. With Old Glory Bank, you get all the best parts of a community bank and a nationwide bank, along with the promise of Privacy, Security, and Liberty.

Nashville TV Station Shows Their True Colors

 

Unlike the Dugger Brothers and Old Glory Bank, They Aren’t Red, White, and Blue.

TV Station WSMV in Nashville, Tennessee, has backtracked on its invitation to country music duo Dugger Band to play their song “True Colors” on the air, deeming the song too political for their morning programming. It seems freedom of speech is not a value this supposedly unbiased news station supports.

John and Seth Dugger, the brothers who form Dugger Band, are friends of Old Glory Bank. Their song was produced by our co-founder, John Rich, and is an anthem of everything Old Glory Bank stands for – love for our country, for freedom, for American heritage, and for Old Glory herself.

The chorus of the song proclaims,

“But I ain't leaving here
I'm an eighth generation
God-fearing, blue collar with the flag waving
And I don't wait for the Fourth of July
It′s year round lifelong American pride
And right here, right now, I'm drawing the line
If this country ain't something you can stand bеhind
Then that's the differеnce 'tween me and you
'Cause my true colors are red, white and blue”

The station sent an email on Tuesday, March 11, one day before Dugger Band’s scheduled appearance on Today in Nashville, stating that the song’s lyrics, “cross a political line that we as a station cannot cross.” They offered to let the band play a different song during their appearance, which the Dugger brothers declined. They state, “We decided not to perform a different song on WSMV, because our freedom of speech is worth more than their publicity.”

Old Glory Bank co-founder and country artist John Rich, producer of “True Colors,” took to X to comment on the TV station’s decision. He says in his video, “Can you even believe this is still going on? This is still happening. You write a pro-America song, and they’re trying to cancel you. They’re trying to censor you and shut you down. A hundred percent. How do we respond to that, country music fans? All the people that follow me and all the rest of the conservative folks on X? How do we respond to that? I know one way. Download their song. … How about we send them to the top of the download charts one time? … This is important. The culture war continues, and we cannot let them get away with this.”

Old Glory Bank is founded on the pro-America values that WSMV seems to find offensive – the freedoms bestowed upon every citizen by the Constitution and the First Amendment. We stand with Dugger Band in their right to perform “True Colors” without censorship. We are proud to be Red, White, and Blue.

We call on Old Glory Nation to support Dugger Band by sharing John Rich’s post, and by downloading their song. The war against cancel-culture is far from over. We’re proud to be fighting as the bank for the Freedom Economy and for patriots who proudly love the U.S.A.

Mike Ring's PSL Podcast

Old Glory Bank’s President and CEO, Mike Ring, has launched a brand new podcast!

The first episode is now available: The Bank Secrecy Act

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) has nothing to do with banks keeping secrets or protecting you. It has everything to do with the government using banks to surveil your private transaction data. It should be called the Bank Snooping Act. Meanwhile, the woke banks use the BSA as their excuse for debanking lawful customers. Hear Ring’s insights on the BSA.
