As we step into the holiday break, we've been reflecting on 2024 and what it meant for us here at ClearBank.   We've continued to grow at an award-winning rate, broke records with payments and deposits, welcomed amazing new clients and partners, and, last but definitely not least, became Europe's newest bank. 🚀 A big thank you to everyone who was a part of it, from our people to our clients and partners – you've made this year one to remember.   It's almost time to turn on the out-of-office and fill up on Christmas chocolate. We wish everyone a very happy holidays! 🌟❄️🎄
