Deep dives

Chase UK Outranks Monzo

Chase UK has emerged as Britain's most popular bank, surpassing Monzo in a recent survey with 81% customer recommendations compared to Monzo's 80%. This shift is particularly notable as Chase only entered the UK market in 2021 and has quickly gained traction among customers. The appeal of Chase appears to be driven by its straightforward features and attractive rewards program, notably offering 1% cashback, which is appealing during the cost of living crisis. Meanwhile, traditional banks like Royal Bank of Scotland lag significantly behind, suggesting a customer shift towards neobanks that prioritize simplicity and usability.
