About Varo

Varo is a nationally chartered digital bank that offers checking, savings, credit-building cards and small-dollar loans through a mobile app. It was the first consumer fintech to receive a U.S. national bank charter, so deposits are FDIC-insured with Varo Bank rather than a partner bank. Customers can get paid up to two days early, add cash at retail locations and use products such as Varo Advance, Varo Line of Credit and the Varo Believe secured credit card. Varo makes money from interchange on debit-card spending and from fees on cash advances and lines of credit.

Founded 2015
Country United States
CEO Gavin Michael
Founders Colin Walsh, Assaf Guery, Mykola Klymenko, Roger Van Duinen
Headquarters San Francisco, CA
