Unbanked

    0.01 sec.
Unbanked
Describing a person or group of people who do not have an account at any bank. Unbanked persons are either paid in cash or cash their paychecks rather than deposit them. Unbanked persons are often poor; lack of a bank account often renders one ineligible to buy a house or take advantage of some social services.
