Fighting for the underdog – We started Dave for one reason: banks weren’t built for people like us, and we knew we deserved better.Like David slaying Goliath, we set out to take on banks and their predatory ways. Our first fight? Making overdraft fees a thing of the past by spotting members the money they needed, without charging them $38. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do.Since then, we’ve continued to bring our members the products traditional banks won't: $500 advances, fee-free goal tracking, and simple ways to find Side Hustles when you’re behind on your budget. We’ve grown a lot since we started, but one thing has never changed: We’re building products that level the financial playing field.
