How Main Street Bank Scaled Its Cannabis Banking Program with Green Check

The Challenge

• Manual Compliance Processes: In-house background checks, deposit vetting, and sales tracking were time-consuming and prone to errors. 
• Operational Inefficiencies: Managing cannabis accounts without automated tools led to inconsistencies and slowed growth.
