Our take
Banks have a poor image and are often perceived to not care about their customers. ONE Finance has the financial well-being of its clients at the heart of what it does. Offering equal access to high-yield savings rates and affordable credit that grows. Its signature feature is the ability to organize money in multiple sub-accounts that ONE calls “Pockets,” whether to pay specific bills or save toward goals. You can also set up shared “Pockets” with partners or friends for joint saving objectives.
ONE is part of a new wave of digital banking apps that have the potential to disrupt traditional legacy systems, driven by European firms such as Triodos in the Netherlands. ONE Finance is clear that it doesn’t use deposits for anything that exploits the Earth's resources or is involved in the arms trade, setting it apart from other recent endeavours from Monzo and Revolut who aren’t so forthcoming about where its funds are invested.
In 2022, ONE was acquired by Hazel, a FinTech company which was launched by Walmart and Ribbit Capital and which also acquired Even Responsible Finance at the same time. The companies have merged under the ONE brand, combining workforces, products and operating budgets, and will benefit from Walmart's support and marketing reach.
