Our take
The speed of the challenger banks to provide a delightful experience has been impressive, and the number of competitors has proven the consumer desire for innovation.
Tandem sets itself apart from other digital banks, such as Monzo and Starling, not only by being the UK's green digital bank but also by continually launching a wide range of products outside the current account. For example, it offers a leading savings account, with higher interest than many incumbents, and a new interest rate top-up feature for its instant access savings accounts.
The company's partnerships with companies like Oplo and Allium, have helped advance its green efforts, issuing over £230 million of green lending. It may have had a slower start than Monzo and Starling, but has since built momentum, serving millions of users. Since further transitioning into a greener digital bank, the company has seen significant (and sustainable) growth.
