Email: brian.kopakin@growfinancial.orgAlthough he grew up in Sarasota, Brian Kopakin always considered Tampa his second home. His family would make the quick drive over the Sunshine Skyway Bridge most weekends to visit his grandparents and extended family, and he remembers spending summers around his uncle’s auto repair shop in downtown Tampa. Now Brian lives in South Tampa with his wife and daughter. When the weekend rolls around and the weather is nice, you may spot them at Armature Works or walking on Bayshore Boulevard.
The majority of Brian’s career has been in the financial services industry, but he took a brief detour from banking to work with a small commodity broker. His experience during that time was invaluable as he saw firsthand and understood the challenges business owners face on a daily basis. With more than a decade of experience in financial services including five years in commercial lending, Brian is prepared to serve our area as a commercial loan officer.
Like you, our business bankers live and work in the communities they serve. We’re a local lender, we make our decisions locally, and we specialize in growing locally sourced businesses.
Let’s get together, and let’s get growing! Contact Brian by phone or email today.
How to Find Your Routing & Account Numbers
When you make a payment online, by phone or on a mobile device, you may be asked for our routing number and your checking account number. Credit unions and banks use these numbers to identify accounts and make sure money gets where it’s supposed to be. You’ll also need to provide your routing and checking account numbers for:
- Direct deposits
- Electronic checks
- Military allotments
- Wire transfers
Where to Find Your Routing & Checking Account Numbers
Your personal checks include both our routing number and your account number, as shown on the Grow check example below.
Don’t have a Grow check? No worries.
Visit any Grow store and ask for a Direct Deposit Form. It lists both your routing number and checking account number.
Making a Loan Payment
When it comes to making payments, we try to make it as painless as possible to pay your loan every month. We have several different ways to pay, including convenient online options.
Pay Online
You have two ways to pay online by transferring funds from another bank or credit union.
- Grow Online Banking (Preferred payment method for any loan)
This is the simplest way to pay your loan. You can make one-time payments or set up automatic recurring payments in Grow Online Banking. Once you log in, select “Transfer/Payments” from the menu. If you’re not enrolled in Grow Online Banking yet, you can set up your account in just a few minutes.
Log In
- Debit Card or ACH (Available for auto, personal loans and HELOCs)
Note: ACH and debit card payments are not available for credit cards or most mortgages, except HELOCs.
We accept ACH payments with no additional fees or Mastercard® and Visa® debit cards with a convenience fee of $4.95. To get started with an online ACH or debit card payment, select Pay Now below.

Pay by Mail
You can also pay any Grow loan by check through the mail. Please remember to include your account number and Grow loan number on the check. (For credit card payments, please do not write your 16-digit credit card number on the check, which can cause a delay in processing the payment.)
