Our Story

On Halloween night in 1983, brothers Dennis and Dave Bassford and Dave’s wife, Sara, opened the first Moneytree Branch, still located at its original site, in Renton, Washington.

The Moneytree story started from humble beginnings and our success has been built through hard work, happy Customers, a great Team and a little bit of luck. When the Bassfords first started planning to open their own check cashing business over 35 years ago, they spent months researching, reaching out to banks and other vendors and finding their first location. They put a lot of planning into creating a welcoming storefront. They also wanted to establish their business as an industry innovator — maintaining the status quo wasn’t going to work.

The Bassfords dreamed of creating not only a successful business, but one of which they could be proud. “Doing the right thing was part of how we were raised” said Dave. “Doing the right thing for our Customers and Team Members drives all of our business decisions. We got to make the decisions about how we would treat our Customers and one another.”

As the business grew, it was important to the Bassfords to treat people fairly, with kindness and respect and to share their good fortune when possible. They recruited Team Members who shared their values and vision. And their Team grew.

Some things have changed since that Halloween night in 1983 but the heart of what we do and who we are hasn’t changed. Our Mission Statement and our values still guide us, “treating others — our Customers, our Team and our communities — the way we would like to be treated.”

At Moneytree, our Mission is to be the best provider of retail financial services by exceeding our Customers' expectations, creating a professional work environment and making a positive impact on the communities in which we live and work.

Our Core Values serve as our guiding principle in delivering our Mission.
