**Our mission is to build wealth for our generation**

Chip started out in 2017 as a clever app to help people save without lifting a finger.
In just a few years we’ve grown into an award-winning wealth app used by over 500,000 people.

Along that journey our mission grew to “build wealth for our generation”.

Which means we build everything with the intention that it’ll make the Chip community wealthier, happier and more financially secure. We want to unlock financial freedom and help people achieve their real long-term goals.

**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 130, from all different backgrounds and industries. We’re driven and passionate people, but no one takes themselves too seriously.
