Earned Wage Campaigns

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Chime's Nationwide Labor Day Tour Aims to Promote Its New Product, Mypay

— September 22, 2024 — Lifestyle
Chime's new product, MyPay, provides workers early access to up to $500 of their earned wages without the need for interest, credit checks, or fees. This initiative challenges the traditional bi-weekly pay cycle, a system dating back to the 1940s, by offering a more flexible alternative for employees dealing with rising costs of living. With inflation affecting essentials like gas and groceries, Chime's MyPay offers immediate financial relief and helps consumers avoid reliance on credit cards or payday loans by giving them early access to their earned wages.

Chime's tur is called 'America's Big Unlock.' It features a cross-country campaign with a giant vault symbolizing the billions of dollars tied up in the current pay cycle. Chime is giving away $500,000 through cash prizes as part of the promotional effort. The tour stops in major cities such as New York and San Francisco.
