Did you hear that? The chime of opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just kidding. But seriously, let\u2019s talk about opportunities with Chime, the fintech company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chime is one of the most popular banking apps out there. It has an estimated 14.5 million users, and it\u2019s been named the \u201c#1 Most-Loved Banking App.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a savvy investor, all of those bona fides might have you wondering how to buy Chime stock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chime is not yet public, so you won\u2019t find the Chime stock symbol on your brokerage. However, that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t potentially invest in the company and\/or sector. Keep reading to find out more\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h.a45xsclkwpv5\"><strong>Chime: The Basics <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wallstreetzen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/image1-2.png\" alt=\"Image1\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Instead of leading with what Chime is, let\u2019s talk about what it\u2019s not: A bank. It says so right on the company website: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cChime\u00ae is a financial technology company, not a bank.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what is it? Rather than a bank, Chime aggregates and provides banking services through a melange of FDIC members including The Bancorp Bank, N.A. or Stride Bank, N.A. From your POV on the app, things are condensed into a single app. But a lot is going on behind the scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company also offers The Chime Visa\u00ae Debit Card and the Chime Credit Builder Visa\u00ae Credit Card, which are issued The Bancorp Bank, N.A. or Stride Bank pursuant to a license from Visa U.S.A. Inc. and may be used everywhere Visa debit and credit cards are accepted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea behind the company? A simpler banking experience with lots of banking services but no monthly fees, no overdraft fees, and a variety of tools to help users build credit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few key things to know about Chime: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Chime was founded in 2012 by Chris Britt (still the CEO) and Ryan King (still the CTO) in San Francisco. The goal? To provide an alternative to traditional banking. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Britt had senior roles at Visa and Green Dot before starting Chime.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While Chime is not a bank, members\u2019 money is safe \u2014 account balances are held at regulated, FDIC-insured banks, The Bancorp Bank, N.A. and Stride Bank, N.A., Members&nbsp;FDIC. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chime was featured on Forbes\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/lists\/fintech50\/?sh=1a2ab08f18d3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\u201cThe Fintech 50\u201d list in 2024<\/a>&nbsp;\u2014 as well as the two years prior. and for the past 2 years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chime has been named one of the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2023\/08\/02\/cnbcs-top-200-global-fintech-companies-the-complete-list.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">best global fintech companies<\/a>\u201d by CNBC. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How does Chime make money? The majority of the company\u2019s revenue comes from collecting interchange fees on debit card transactions. &nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In 2020, Chime partnered with the Dallas Mavericks in a multiyear deal as a jersey sponsor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The company reported 8 million members in 2020; that number has swelled to a reported 14.5 million members in 2024. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While these little factoids might have some thinking about moving their funds to Chime, others might be wondering how to buy Chime stock.
