We are chartered in Minnesota and serve our customer base throughout Central Minnesota with offices in Big Stone, Grant, Todd, Traverse, Wadena, Hennepin and Wright counties. Star Bank has continued to expand during difficult economic times. Most recently, a de novo office was opened in Eden Prairie, MN followed by the acquisition of a new branch in Maple Lake. We now operate 10 branch locations across our Minnesota footprint. 

Star Bank offers a full menu of financial solutions to individuals, families, Agri-businesses, and other commercial businesses. We’re a full-service financial services organization with mobile banking and other digital services that consumers and businesses expect from their bank, along with personalized service where the focus is on the customer like banking should be. Our tagline and guiding philosophy when supporting our local audience is: "The Bank That Cares"™ 

Star Bank has approx. $388MM in assets and we were honored to assist over 800 local businesses with SBA PPP loans during the COVID-19 pandemic. We’ve got a small-town banking philosophy with big-city services to serve you. 

Recent accolades for our bank include the 2023 Empowering Women Award with Finance + Commerce, the 2019 Progress Minnesota Award, and a 2019 top five Minnesota Family Business Award with Twin Cities Business.
