About Us

Kress National Bank was charted in 1963 by a group of local citizens, starting a long banking history with a rich heritage as a Panhandle / South Plains Texas independent bank, with a continuing philosophy of personal service and trust.  For almost one half of a century, KNB has built upon that trust to become one of the safest and highest rated banks in Texas according to Bauer Financial Reports, Inc.  In this climate of banks merging with larger institutions, Kress National feels we can offer our customers the personal service they do not receive from the larger banks.  Dealing primarily in agriculture and personal banking needs, KNB takes pride in the deep roots it has in the local economy.

When deciding where to bank, you may ask the question, how is Kress National Bank different from other banks? Here's what sets us apart:

  • We are locally owned and operated.
  • We have been independent since chartered in 1963 and intend to stay that way.
  • We answer only to our customers, not big bank bureaucracy.
  • Yes, you will have an account number, but you'll be much more than a number to us.

Delivering total convenience is the goal at Kress National Bank.  Electronic Banking helps to make that goal possible. Internet Banking and Bill Pay are available for both individuals and businesses.  Twenty-four hour account access is also possible through the telephone banking system, TeleBank. Visa ATM and Debit cards give you round the clock access to your money.  Through the Money Pass system, ATMs are accessible in thousands of locations nationwide surcharge free.  

While understanding the importance of convenience, Kress National still believes in quality hometown service.  Our officers and employees are committed to personal service and customer satisfaction.  While the Internet and new technologies allow Kress National to offer our customers new levels of convenience, Kress National has not and will never become a faceless institution.  

Remember that we specialize in personal service, so please stop by for a cup of coffee, to check the markets, or just for a visit.  If you can't make it in, just give us a call at 806-684-2231.  Welcome to the family!
