Start Enjoying the Benefits of Banking Locally and Digitally

Jun 15, 2020

As an online bank based in San Diego, Axos Bank offers you the best of both worlds – a local financial institution that’s also available anytime, anywhere.

Born digital on July 4, 2000, Axos is more than just another online bank. We’re a local resource that’s committed to the people within the San Diego community. Over the years, we have fulfilled our mission of Banking Evolved by delivering financial strength, excellent customer service, and innovative products to businesses and consumers. With Axos, you’ll spend less time worrying about banking and more time enjoying all that San Diego has to offer.

Still need convincing that Axos is the choice bank for San Diegans? Keep reading for four reasons why you should make the switch.

1. We’re Dedicated to Supporting the San Diego Community

Although we’re a digital-first bank, we’re committed to giving back to the real-world communities where we live and work. In San Diego, our team members devote time and energy each year to community service activities, and we feel strongly about establishing partnerships with organizations, businesses, and individuals throughout America’s Finest City.

We’re proud to sponsor Hope Leadership Academy (HLA), a San Diego non-profit that runs mentorship programs to help youth from fatherless homes in underserved communities overcome poverty, abuse, addiction, and other barriers to success. Other local organizations we support include the SEAL Family Foundation, San Diego Habitat for Humanity, Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego, and Meals-on-Wheels San Diego County.

We give back in other ways as well. Since 2013, our team members have volunteered over 1,000 hours of their time to support Junior Achievement of San Diego County’s work-readiness and financial literacy programs for youth.

When considering banks, choose one that supports you and your community.

2. We Understand the Local Market

We offer insight into local market conditions that a national bank may not fully appreciate. Our experienced mortgage professionals are equipped with personal knowledge of the local economy and a familiarity with San Diego’s neighborhoods, so you get the guidance and support you need throughout the homebuying process. In fact, so far we’ve originated over $865 million in mortgages to homebuyers in San Diego County!

And if you’re a small business owner in San Diego, our business checking and savings accounts are designed to move your business forward. You can count on our personalized service and convenient products and tools. In fact, Fundera, NerdWallet, and FitSmallBusiness have rated us among the best banks for small businesses.

3. We Offer Better, Less Costly Products and Services

There’s no denying it – San Diego is one of the country’s most expensive (albeit amazing) cities to live in. So why waste your hard-earned money on excessive bank fees? As a digital bank, we aren’t weighed down by overhead costs. Instead, we pass those savings on to our customers. This means perks such as:

Low to no fee checking, savings, and business accounts
Low to no minimum balance requirements
Industry-leading rates

Use the money you save banking with Axos to explore San Diego’s many attractions.

4. We Make Banking Easy and Convenient

Traditional banks can be a hassle – but not Axos. As a digital bank, we help you avoid wasting time in traffic or long lines. This gives you more time to do the things you love, such as hiking, enjoying the beach, or exploring San Diego’s many great neighborhoods. Just use our mobile app to get 24-hour-access to your account, no matter where life takes you.

You also won’t have to sacrifice the personal service that many fear they’ll lose with an online bank. Instead, you can rely on Axos to provide award-winning customer service that’s attuned to the unique needs of San Diego residents.
