Don't just take our word for it
Great bank to start up. In the early days, I wasn't meant to use this bank, but we're a hemp business with an international maker. We couldn't come to the United States either. When no one took us, Novel did it, and I'm so happy they did it, because they're the best, the easiest bank out there. No BS and top-notch customer service

I have been using for over a month now and I absolutely love it. The user experience is great and the service + customer support is top notch. It solved the biggest issue a startup can face - Having a virtual bank account that is fast, reliable and provides great support.

I am a new user of Novel banking. The process of receiving payments and sending them has been seamless so far. The team's pretty quick to respond and quite helpful. The dashboard's UI/UX is quite friendly and simple as well. Keen on using Novel more often and may come back with more feedback later on. Thanks Novel! :)

Blazing fast, frankly frightening how convenient it is to handle all my startup accounts and budgets. Save me so much manual work that I can actually concentrate on building and running a business.

I needed a bank account that I could open online and find Novel. Their website looks fantastic, and they didn't charge me any secret fees. I've been a client for a couple of months, and it works for me.
This week, I had a vendor who said payment was lost. I approached the help of Novel and spoke to real people. They followed up with the payment, contacted me back, and had it fixed.

I highly recommend Novel, and that's why:- Exceptional service; (the CS does a great job of resolving problems in a timely manner)-The code is easy to use (online banking)-Simply, done right (everything is straightforward, unlike the other banks that overcomplicate things by needing to call 3 different departments)A: Cons:I wish I could know about them earlier.
