S&T Bank has implemented nCino's Cloud Banking Platform to streamline processes, advance its digital strategy, and better serve its business clients. By leveraging nCino's platform, S&T Bank has eliminated disparate systems and manual processes, enabling digitization, automation, and improved client experiences across multiple products and channels.

Before implementing nCino, Platinum Bank, a community bank based in the Midwest, was using paper-based processes that required manual tasks. Like many of their competitors, the Bank was looking for a cloud-based solution that would help it gain efficiency, increase transparency and offer its employees and clients a seamless digital experience.

Platinum Bank went live on the nCino platform in just under six months, partnering with nCino on an accelerated delivery for incredibly fast implementation, despite additional challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Powered by nCino, Platinum Bank can also grow its business loan portfolio more effectively and competitively by identifying bottlenecks in its sales processes.
