A new approach to banking that doesn’t rely on Fees
At Chime, we’ve created a new approach to banking that doesn’t rely on fees , gets you your paycheck up to 2 days early , and helps you grow your savings automatically. When you open a Chime bank account, you get a Visa Debit Card® and a Spending Account that can be managed entirely from your smartphone, plus an optional Savings Account that helps you grow your savings automatically! The Chime mobile banking app is available on both Android and iOS.
Our mission is to make financial peace of mind a reality for everyone. We’re doing that by changing the way people feel about banking. Chime’s business was built on the principle of protecting our members and making managing your money easy.
We’ll never profit from your misfortune or mistakes and everything we build is focused on improving our member’s lives. So, how does Chime make money? Unlike traditional banks that may charge consumers fees left, right, and center, Chime makes money from “interchange.”
Every time you use your Chime Debit Card, Visa processes the transaction and charges an interchange fee for the service. We get a percentage of that interchange fee every time you use your Chime Debit Card, which means we never have to charge you those unnecessary fees to run our business. It’s a win-win for everyone! Who can use Chime?
U.S. Citizens 18 years an older are welcome to apply! While Chime cards work all over the world, currently we can only offer accounts to members with a valid SSN, living in the United States and District of Columbia. We don’t believe in unnecessary fees or profiting from our members’ misfortune. We have no fees to sign up , no overdraft, no monthly or service fees, no minimum balance fees, no transaction fees, and no card replacement fees either. We do charge one fee ($2.50) for over the counter cash withdrawals or using an out-of-network ATM that is not part of Chime’s fee-free network of 38,000 ATMs. Please note that third-party money transfer services used to deposit or withdraw funds to your Chime Spending Account may impose their own fees per transaction.
