Chime is a Second Chance Banking Option with No Monthly Fees

Many standard checking accounts and savings accounts can be expensive just to maintain each month. Traditional accounts sometimes charge high and unnecessary banking fees that can cause additional monetary challenges to people with credit issues.  Minimum balance requirements add yet another hurdle. Add in monthly maintenance fees, rising ATM fees, and expensive overdraft fees and banking can be a complete non-starter.

Chime offers a second chance bank account with no unnecessary fees. Keep more of your hard-earned money and sign up for a Chime account:

  • 60,000+ fee-free ATMs
  • No overdraft fees
  • No monthly maintenance charges
  • No foreign transaction fees
  • No minimum balance fees – ever
