Scaling a business means more moving parts—more expenses, more transactions, and more financial complexity.

Without the right banking setup, you risk spending too much time tracking numbers instead of growing your business.

That’s exactly what Zach Martinucci, founder of Rebel Bread Co., faced before switching to Relay. With 30 employees and a rapidly expanding wholesale and retail operation, he needed a system that worked with his fast-growing business—not against it.

Download the free guide to learn how Zach:

  • Eliminated 6+ hours of banking admin per month by avoiding branch visits and 1-800 calls.

  • Gained instant cash flow clarity with multiple checking accounts to separate payroll, taxes, and expenses.

  • Synced banking with Xero and Gusto to automate bookkeeping and payroll without manual work.

  • Resolved a $19K payment issue fast with hands-on support that prevented overdrafts and penalties.
