Evangelist Launches ProLife Bank — Here’s Why
By Movieguide® Contributor
Australian-American motivational speaker and evangelist Nick Vujicic has announced that his pro-life, faith-friendly online banking service will launch this November.
Vujicic decided to start his own bank after he was “debanked about five years ago because he was supporting the pro-life cause.”
“I got kicked out of a bank with no warning. They froze my credit cards, froze my debit cards,” he told CBN. “They gave me a letter to say that they did a review of me as a client and they don’t want anything to do with me.”
Vujicic announced his decision to open a pro-life bank a few years ago.
“Most banks — 90%, in fact — give philanthropically toward abortion,” Vujicic told The Christian Post in 2021. “Just like Noah’s saved lives, so we’re going to save lives with ProLife Bank. It’s based on the understanding that God wants to take back His role and redistribute [money] through His faithful students.”

Vujicic will launch the bank alongside his “spiritual mother” and executive director of Network Medical Women’s Center, Betsy Gray.
Vujicic revealed that after praying about the project with his wife, God made his path clear.
“We had a grenade at our house; I had a false article published in a gay magazine that I fired someone for being gay. I had a lawsuit threat against me by somebody internationally. I had a spy drone above my house, and I got kicked out of a bank, all within a matter of 16 weeks after that prayer,” he said. “It was evident to me that this is an issue close to the Lord’s heart.”
After years of planning, the online banking service will launch in November.
“ProLifeFintech is an alternative to the legacy banking systems that, for years, have been unaccountable for their support of the largest abortion provider and other organizations that oppose God’s moral laws. ProLifeFintech is creating and stewarding a movement in banking that is secure, un-cancellable, and abiding by the will of God. We’re standing firm in the wake of woke financial systems with a heart to serve the Lord,” the website reads.
Vujicic isn’t the only one who’s been debanked. The National Committee for Religious Freedom had its account closed by JPMorgan Chase.
“I went in to make a deposit at a branch here in Kansas about three or four weeks after we’d opened up the account,” U.S. Senator and Religious Freedom Ambassador Sam Brownback told CBN. “And the teller there said ‘That account’s been closed.’ And I go, ‘What?’ and they said, ‘That account’s been closed. Your funds will be sent to you in a couple of weeks.’ And then later they came back and said, ‘Well, if you’ll disclose who gives more than 10% of your funds to you and your criteria for supporting candidates as a 501c4 we’ll consider re-opening up the account.'”
Vujicic’s bank will give people an option to support causes they believe in through their banking.
“We will not fund abortion, but we’ll actually fund 50 percent net profits to Judeo-Christian-aligned nonprofit organizations that are biblically aligned in doing the will of God according to our belief systems,” he said previously.
