When Gateway Bank started in 2007, we had a vision of building a community bank in Mesa for locals, by locals. After 10+ years, one great recession, and many industry changes, we’re proud to still serve Mesa as the city’s only hometown bank.


We take this accolade not only as an honor, but also as a responsibility. Currently, less than 10% of Arizona’s total deposits are in Arizona-owned banks and credit unions. People who choose to go local and work with Gateway count on us to be a refreshing alternative to the big bank experience. To know them by name, watch out for their best interests, and answer their questions quickly. To be a consistent partner that doesn’t sell out or change the reasons they chose to bank with us in the first place.

We’re committed to following through on all of those promises and continuing to be your independent community bank in Mesa, AZ. With your support, we hope to be a long-term figure in the community — a go-to resource for you, your kids, and maybe even your grandkids someday.

Gateway is proud to be here today, and we’re here to stay!
