New Trinity Republic Bank Features High-Tech Teller Machines

NEW PORT RICHEY, FL — Republic Bank has opened a new free-standing banking center in the Trinity area, featuring the bank's new high-tech Interactive Teller Machine.

The ITMs located in the lobby and in the drive-thru of the bank at 10577 State Road 54 in New Port Richey feature live customer service representatives available through real-time video, allowing for extended banking hours and greater customer convenience.

ITMs allow clients to make deposits without an envelope or deposit slip, cash checks for exact change and make loan payments. Transactions are processed the same day, even after regular banking hours. The Republic Bank ITM offers banking from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays and 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday.

“We are thrilled to open this new Republic Bank location in Trinity,” said Jim Kirkpatrick, Republic Bank’s Florida market president. “Our strong team of local bankers are invested in the community and committed to taking care of our clients in this neighborhood. The opening of this new banking center is just one way we make banking easier for our clients through the combination of both bank lobby service and extended drive-thru service hours offered by our Interactive Teller Machine.”

“Our new Trinity location will enhance our successful community banking presence in the Tampa Bay area,” said Republic Bank Chairman and CEO Steve Trager. “We look forward to helping businesses and consumers achieve their financial goals and extending friendly, local lending.”

The new bank replaces the previous location at 9037 U.S. 19 in Port Richey.

Regular bank lobby hours are from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday.
