US neobank offering fee-free checking, early paycheck access and credit-building products via a mobile app, partnered with chartered banks.
Earns most of its revenue from interchange, a small fee merchants pay each time a member uses the Chime debit card, rather than charging account fees, so income grows with how much members spend. Accounts are issued by partner banks, The Bancorp Bank and Stride Bank, since Chime has no bank charter of its own. It listed in 2025.
Moat: narrow (brand, distribution, scale). Strong low-income/mass-market brand and interchange-funded free model, though it must partner with chartered banks.
