About

Mission

Don’t call us a bank

Chime® is a financial technology company that believes basic banking services should be helpful, easy, and free. We offer better banking products and services by addressing the fundamental misalignment in the industry between what’s good for banks and what’s good for consumers. We want to profit with our members, not from them. That’s why Chime doesn’t rely on overdraft fees, monthly service fees, or minimum balance requirements. Feels like progress™.

To unite everyday people to unlock their financial progress. By eliminating unnecessary fees and simplifying the credit building process, we’ve empowered millions of everyday people to take control of their finances.

Chime is a consumer fintech company and not a bank so we should not be referred to as “Chime Bank”. Chime partners with The Bancorp Bank, N.A. and Stride Bank, N.A., Members FDIC, that power the bank accounts used by Chime Members.

“Thanks to Chime’s SpotMe¹ feature, I played the superhero and saved the day: I was able to get baby formula and food for my family, as well as transportation to work.”

-Daniel S.

“Chime has been a great help in my day-to-day routine. App notifications help me keep track of where my money’s going; the Pay Friends feature allows me to send funds to my daughter, and SpotMe¹ helps me when I'm in a pinch.”

-Tanya A.

"As a mother of five children, there have been times where I couldn't afford groceries. SpotMe¹ covered $45 dollars that I needed for all my groceries. I cried on the way home."

-Latoya T.

"Adulting is always hard. By a certain age, you already want certain things to be lined up—credit especially. Chime’s Credit Builder card⁴ has provided the best way to get a jump start on the financial status I want."
