Chime is an app that lets people open fee-free checking and savings accounts with direct deposit and a debit card. 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. Chime gets a percentage of that interchange fee every time you use your Chime Debit Card, which means they never have to charge you those unnecessary fees to run their business. It’s a win-win for everyone!

They have no fees to sign up, no overdraft(up to $100), no monthly or service fees, no minimum balance fees, no transaction fees, and no card replacement fees either. They do charge one fee ($2.50) when you get cash from either an over the counter withdrawal, or an out-of-network ATM that is not part of Chime’s fee-free network of 38,000+ ATMs.

Chime was founded in 2013, has over 1,000 employees, and has raised over $2.3 billion in funding to date.
