We're building wealth for our generation.
Chip your wealth app
Our Vision
We know planning for your future can be a tedious, daunting task often avoided, so we want to change that.
We're building the wealth app for our community, giving them one place for saving and investing.
We're giving customers control and guidance to effortlessly build their long-term wealth using award-winning tech, while celebrating their achievements along the way.
In practical terms this means adding more savings accounts and investment opportunities for Chip members to passively grow their wealth, combined with intelligent tools and intuitive features to make it easier for them to actively build up their wealth.
We’re all huge believers in making managing wealth more effortless, and as automated as possible. So everyone can feel empowered to focus on achieving the things that really matter to them.
We're not bankers
Chip has a creative and diverse team of 150, from all different backgrounds and industries. We’re driven and passionate people, but no one takes themselves too seriously.
Don’t just take our word for it. We have a few awards under our belt, including Best Personal Finance App at the 2022 & 2024 British Bank Awards.
Join us!
We want a real person, with interests outside of work, to join our team. We value having a broad and diverse range of backgrounds and experiences on our team.
Bottom line, we want smart people, who are driven to build and innovate, and actively look for opportunities to improve our tech, marketing, services and processes. We have a strong culture of listening to good ideas from everyone, from every team at every level.
At the interview stages, we will be looking for empathy, eq, fun stories, and the ability to smile even when things are tough.
