In the seven years since Safe Harbor Financial was founded, we’ve processed over $12 billion in cannabis-related funds, managed nearly 600 accounts, and operated across 20 states. What began as a vision to rescue the underbanked Colorado cannabis industry has expanded to cover all cannabis-related businesses struggling to secure financial services.

Despite the legalization of medical marijuana, the federal government’s prohibition means major financial institutions are prevented from accepting cannabis-related companies. That’s why Safe Harbor Financial was founded in 2015 – we deliver the best cannabis banking in Salt Lake City.

Our Salt Lake City cannabis banking services include checking and savings accounts, online banking, consumer payments, electronic tax payments, direct deposit payroll, and more.

You need a reliable and experienced cannabis bank in Salt Lake City; you need Safe Harbor Financial. Contact our team to find out more about becoming a member.

Grow your business with marijuana banking in Salt Lake City

We pride ourselves on being a part of the community. Wherever we operate, we become the experts on the relevant laws and regulations governing the industry and the specific demands of the region. 

In Utah, cannabis remains illegal for recreational use. However, the legalization of medical marijuana has opened a small yet growing industry of dispensaries, grow facilities and ancillary support. There’s plenty of room for businesses to operate and grow. Indeed, CBD extraction and products is a thriving industry, and low-THC CBD oil has been legal since 2014.

Yet, to operate successfully, businesses need the regulatory support and financial services only we can provide. We’ll help you navigate the intricacies of Salt Lake City’s cannabis banking rules – so you can operate safely in the knowledge you’re protected.

Moreover, if and when recreational marijuana is legalized, we’ll support your business during this critical transition. We’ve done it before in Colorado and elsewhere – we’re perfectly positioned to do it again.
