Bank of Bennington Changes Name to i3 Bank

Bank of Bennington, now i3 Bank (i3.Bank), announced that it has completed a major rebranding prompted by its continued growth into new markets. i3 Bank will continue to be locally owned and managed to deliver innovative solutions with a reputation of integrity to make an impact on its customers and communities. Bank of Bennington’s insurance subsidiary, Prime Insurance Group, has also been renamed as i3 Insurance. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held on June 29 with the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce to celebrate the i3 launch.

i3 Bank’s Lincoln branch located at 3933 S 14th St. is managed by president of the Lincoln market, Jeff Krejci. The full-service branch was opened by Krejci in 2020 after its initial introduction to the market in 2018 with LNK Loan Center. It has grown steadily to approximately $30 million in loans under Krejci’s management.

“Here at i3 Bank, we truly pride ourselves on our connection to our customers and communities,” said Krejci. “That mission won’t change—we’re just taking it to the next level.”

Online banking tools and current debit cards will work as usual and will be replaced with new i3 Bank cards upon expiration. Customers can continue to use current checks, which will be replaced with the new name and logo upon their next order. Online banking and mobile banking remain unchanged. Customers can call (402) 238-2245 for more information.

Founded in 1928, the bank’s CEO Leslie Andersen carries on the fourth generation of the founding family’s legacy where professional personal service and courtesy come first.
