History

Established in 2007.

Gateway Bank represents a return to the old-​fashioned way of banking, where the staff knew everyone by name and treated you like a person instead of a number. We bring this nostalgic approach to banking into modern times. Our small-​town values and passion for serving the community drive everything we do. You’ll find that Gateway offers the best of both worlds: the local and personal attention you want, with the variety of products and services you need.

We’re located in Mesa, Arizona, but our service extends far beyond the East Valley. Our large network of partnering ATMs and added conveniences, like remote deposit service for businesses, make it easy for people all over Phoenix to experience the Gateway difference.
