Republic Bank Expands Online and Mobile Banking Access to Clients Without SSNs or TINs

Empowering More Clients with Secure Digital Banking

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Republic Bank & Trust Company (“Republic” or the “Bank”) has announced that it now offers online and mobile banking access for clients who do not have a Social Security Number (SSN) or Tax Identification Number (TIN), expanding digital banking services to better serve individuals and communities.

As part of a recent core system upgrade, the Bank implemented a new registration process that enables clients without social security numbers or tax identification numbers to securely enroll in and access online and mobile banking. While these clients have long been able to bank in person at one of Republic’s 47 banking centers, this enhancement expands digital access and reinforces the Bank’s commitment to financial inclusion and convenience.

“This update reflects our continued focus on modernizing digital platforms,” said Logan Pichel, President and CEO of Republic Bank. “By expanding our online and mobile banking capabilities, we’re making it easier for more clients to manage their finances securely and conveniently however they want to bank with us.”

By expanding digital access, Republic Bank continues to meet clients where they are and provide secure, user‑friendly financial services that support everyday banking needs. In addition, the Bank is working to translate self‑help resources, educational materials, and key banking documents to better support diverse client needs. Together, these enhancements reinforce Republic Bank’s commitment to serving clients through helpful, convenient, and digitally connected solutions.
