📈 Why we’re excited

There are a number of significant macro and micro-level trends that signal the need for a solution like Modern, now more than ever.

Macroeconomic:

Increasingly challenging economic conditions steer millions toward more debt, driving higher delinquency rates, and continued negative impacts on financial health.

Based on findings from our extensive A/B testing and user research, consumers are looking for more proactive, holistic solutions that help them get ahead of bill payments and avoid unnecessary debt or fees.

Industry:

Traditional neobank playbook is flawed - Varo is unable to scale lending business despite a bank charter; $83 in average account balance

Chime and Dave continue to capture small share of wallet

PFMs have neither the focus on bills nor the infrastructure to take meaningful action

Regulation:

Credit bureaus increase scrutiny on credit builder cards that generate weak signals of creditworthiness

Fannie/Freddie pressures credit bureaus add weight to rent and utility bill payments in credit files

Legal action taken on P2P payment apps for inadequate consumer fraud protection
