About
Clarity over your deposits
BankSonar exists to answer one anxious question — “is my money safe?” — in seconds, for any US bank or credit union. We take the same public FDIC call-report data that regulators and analysts use, and turn it into a clear signal anyone can read.
How we stay free
BankSonar is free to use and always will be for the core scan. We’re supported by advertising and by affiliate commissions when readers choose to open accounts through our partners — always clearly disclosed, and never at any cost to you. Affiliate relationships never influence a bank’s Sonar Score, which is computed by formula from FDIC data alone.
Independence
We are not a bank, not a broker, and not affiliated with the FDIC, NCUA, or any institution we cover. We don’t take payment to change scores or rankings.
Data source
Institution data comes from the FDIC BankFind Suite API, a public-domain dataset updated quarterly. Figures may lag the most recent quarter and should be verified against official sources for critical decisions.
