“We could not be happier with our choice to bank with SouthStar. The customer service is truly second to none. If you’re looking for a true Texas bank with the best banking experience you’ll ever get, SouthStar is the one!” ~ Chandra A.

Banking… Texas Style

SouthStar Bank, S.S.B. (headquartered in Moulton, TX) specializes in residential mortgage, real estate, and construction lending, operating 16 full-service branches and one loan production office across the Central Texas region. Established in 1920, the bank holds over $1 billion in assets and focuses on community involvement and personal relationships. Decisions are made locally, allowing the flexibility to apply common-sense standards to products, services, and loan requests.

In addition to lending and traditional financial services, SouthStar Bank offers its clients the latest conveniences, including online and mobile banking with check capture, debit cards with Secure Alerts so you’re always in control, and a free worldwide Allpoint ATM network.

SouthStar Bank is one of the largest independent banks in Texas and holds an impressive 5-star rating by Bauer Financial. While we continually strive to offer the very best in service, convenience, and security, our founding commitment remains the same: to provide friendly, flexible, common-sense financial services where we live and work—Texas Style!

“Our expansion of SouthStar Bank has resulted in a stronger bank with broader market presence, greater lending capabilities, and more efficient, centralized operations. But most importantly, it has enabled us to better serve our customers with a superior level of products, services and care regardless of which branch they call home,” said David Kapavik, CEO & President.
