What We Do

Chime was created because we believe everyone can Unlock Financial Progress and we want to develop solutions and services to empower people to succeed. The premise upon which we started Chime is simple: basic banking services should be helpful transparent and easy. Our suite of tools and platforms give our members the ability to have more control over their money and to take action toward achieving their financial ambitions. By designing a member-centric banking app with easy-to-understand financial tools we’re creating a more competitive market with options for everyday Americans. We offer access to accounts with no overdraft fees providing members the chance to receive their pay up to 2 days early* with direct deposit build credit history and develop financial literacy to hit their goals—among many other things. Since 2012 we’ve grown our team to more than 1500 Chimers across 3 offices. But more than that we’ve expanded the products and services we offer to our members based on their feedback. And in doing so we’ve disrupted the banking industry and changed the conversation for everyday people about money on a national level. Chime is a financial technology company not a bank. Banking services are provided by The Bancorp Bank N.A. or Stride Bank N.A. Members FDIC. *Early access to direct deposit funds depends on the timing of the submission of the payment file from the payer. We generally make these funds available on the day the payment file is received which may be up to 2 days earlier than the scheduled payment date.
