    About Varo

    Varo launched in 2017 with the vision to bring the best of fintech into the regulated banking system. We're a new kind of bank – all-digital, mission-driven, FDIC-insured, and designed around the modern American consumer.

    As the first consumer fintech to be granted a national bank charter in 2020, we make financial inclusion and opportunity for all a reality by empowering everyone with the products, insights, and support they need to get ahead. Through our core product offerings and suite of customer-first features, we aim to address a broad range of consumer needs while profitably serving underserved communities that have been historically excluded from the traditional financial system.
