Our Heartland Bank Review

4.0/ 5.0How we rate

Heartland Bank and Trust Company is a community bank headquartered in Bloomington, Illinois, serving businesses across central Illinois, eastern Iowa, and Missouri. Founded in 1920 and ranked #1 on Forbes' 2026 America's Best Banks List, it brings over a century of operating history and a strong regional reputation to the table. For business borrowers, it offers lines of credit, term loans, equipment finance, commercial real estate financing, and construction finance — with a particular depth in agricultural lending that reflects its roots in the region's farming economy. Eligibility requirements aren't publicly listed, so you'll want to contact the bank directly to discuss your situation. Appears well suited for established businesses in its footprint — especially those in agriculture, real estate, or equipment-intensive industries — looking for a relationship-driven community bank with serious staying power.

How BreadRoute Makes Money

BreadRoute is free for business owners. We're compensated by the financing and insurance partners we work with, either when we refer you to them or when you obtain financing or coverage through them. This compensation may influence which partners appear on our site and in what order. It does not affect the terms, rates, or pricing you're offered.

What BreadRoute Is and Isn't

BreadRoute is not a lender, funder, or insurance company. We don't make credit decisions, set rates or terms, issue policies, or fund transactions. We connect business owners with third-party partners who do. Any offer you receive comes from that partner, on their terms, subject to their underwriting and approval. Submitting an application through BreadRoute is not an application for credit and does not guarantee that you'll receive an offer, approval, or any particular rate or amount.

Your Information

When you submit an application, we share the information you provide with financing partners as described in our Privacy Policy and on our Partners page. Those partners may contact you directly. You can see the current list of partners at any time on our Partners page.

Rates, Terms, and Disclosures

Rates, terms, fees, and product availability are set by the partner, not by BreadRoute, and are subject to change. Any figures shown on this site are illustrative and are not offers. Before entering into any financing agreement, review the disclosures and documents the partner provides, including any disclosures required by your state.

Insurance

Insurance products are offered through licensed third-party partners. BreadRoute does not sell insurance, bind coverage, or provide insurance advice. Coverage, eligibility, and pricing are determined by the insurer.
