Our take

Current is a neobank offering digital banking to over 3 million Americans. With a focus on younger generations - Gen Z and millennials - and paycheck-to-paycheck customers, it offers a swathe of innovative services including on-demand pay and overdraft protection to customers underserved by traditional institutions.

Younger customers are expected in the coming years to pivot from legacy institutions to the higher functionality and lower costs of consumer-first neobanks like Current. By netting an average customer age of 27, Current is establishing itself as a pack leader among rival but less well-funded neobanks like Step or Till.

It is also successfully competing with legacy institutions by exploiting the relatively adaptive nature of neobanking: Current has previously offered customers advanced access to stimulus checks, and is seeking to expand into crypto.
