Client Success Story


How Bungii leverages its last-mile expertise – and treasury services from Country Club Bank – to fuel national growth

Bunjii logoA vision for revolutionizing big and bulky delivery has quickly turned Kansas City-based Bungii into one of the most promising and profitable sharing economy companies in the dynamic world of last-mile logistics.

Launched with the simple idea of making the final mile faster, more intelligent, and more cost-effective, Bungii connects retailers, distributors, logistics companies, and even homeowners with nearby pickup trucks and reliable drivers, offering a hassle-free solution for delivering bulky goods.

Her journey with Bungii began as a mentor during its early days to her integral leadership role today. “I saw the company’s potential to move from local to enterprise-focused,” Thurston said, “and I knew I wanted to help build that out.”

Today, Bungii serves over 80 metro areas in the U.S., with plans to expand to larger asset classes like box trucks, adding further versatility to its delivery offerings. Through its unique B2B-focused model, Bungii partners with leading retailers and logistics companies, relying on technology to ensure a seamless, secure delivery experience. 

Its AI-driven verification processes and data insights offer customers peace of mind, with robust tools like photo verification and facial recognition safeguarding service and reliability. “It’s about creating a best-in-class experience for our partners,” Thurston notes. “We want to be the last-mile standard for quality and innovation.”

To help manage and administer its rapid expansion, Bungii strategically selected Country Club Bank as its provider for all treasury services, including core operating accounts for payroll, taxes, payables, and receivables. 

After assessing other local, regional, and national banking options, Thurston said she was drawn to the relationship-first approach at Country Club Bank. The switch to CCB’s treasury management suite and corporate credit card program also streamlined Bungii’s financial processes, easing the day-to-day.

“From the start, their treasury team made it incredibly easy for us to decide and make the switch,” said Thurston. “They coordinated the paperwork, orchestrated the account transfers, and were with us every step of the way to ensure accuracy and effortlessness.”

Thurston said she values the accessibility and local presence Country Club Bank provides. 

“Since we pride ourselves on agility and readiness, having a banking partner that’s just a text, phone call, or short drive away adds an extra layer of convenience and trust that we value and appreciate,” said Thurston.

Thurston said Country Club Bank’s commitment to personalized, efficient service also aligns with Bungii’s operational needs and ethos: having an expert team that never quits or leaves anything to chance.

“Whether it’s account transitions or handling customer requests, Country Club Bank understands the importance of responsive and relationship-driven banking,” said Thurston. “They ensure we have what we need and are set up to succeed.”
