This bank has come along way with the services it provides. receipt tracking, expense and vendor management, multiple accounts, etc. It's a good bank. The app still is lacking most of that functionality though. I can hardly look at all of my accounts due to UI/UX issues and there is not an easy way to provide feedback on the app itself without leaving a review, so here we are. Hope to make this a 5 star review one day as I like Relay.

I am really satisfied with Relay. It meets most of my business needs, there are no monthly charges, and it is extremely convenient. The number of subaccounts and debit cards (physical and virtual) is great. This allows me to ensure that money is directed to the correct area of my business, and there is no guesswork come tax time. The only reason they are not getting 5 stars is because set up was not a smooth process -- not at all. The time for a payment to clear seemed way too long in the beginning. I don't know if I have gotten used to the amount of time it takes now or if they are clearing faster since the account is not brand new, but money seems to be available a lot sooner than before. I also have to keep another business bank account with another bank because this one does not provide checks (mailing paperwork and sending a check in the mail separately does not work).

The app is fine but their business sucks. Not a great option for a small business owner. You can't reach out thru phone even you try multiple times during the day. They are quick in responding email but nothing comes up useful from that. They can't give information or handle anything other than ask for the wait for. I have multiple small business accounts with them but it is not working. They recently changed their system which caused a lot of trouble. Not recommended!!!

What’s new

In this update, we fixed a UI issue that prevented users from properly viewing their last account in the Accounts tab. AB organizations now appear first in the mobile app, matching web behavior.
