Quontic Bank Social Media Community Guidelines

Quontic Bank is excited to share what we’re doing in local communities with you. In turn, we have a variety of active social media channels, including, but not limited to, Facebook, Google+, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube. However, because banking is such a highly regulated industry, we have to follow specific rules. In turn, we’ve established the following guidelines:
