Ultima Bank Minnesota Review

Based in Winger, Minnesota, Ultima Bank offers checking, savings, investments, and loans to individuals, businesses, and agricultural business in the area.

Online banking capability

Primary Internet Web Address: www.ultimabank.com

You can access and manage accounts online and with your phone, even depositing your checks with their MobileBanc app. Even though you can manage most of the common accounts online, some accounts must be opened initially at one of their branches, and it is not clear whether all accounts are eligible for online services.

You can receive your statements via email and also pay bills online.
With checking accounts, using online banking capabilities eliminates most service fees such as a monthly statement fee.
